Dylan, Perry and George shared a sum of money. The amount received by Perry was ⁵₆ the amount of money received by George. After Dylan had given $42 to Perry and $25 to George, Perry gave $6 to George. In the end, 3 of them had the same amount of money. Find the difference between the amount of money that Dylan and Perry had at first.

	Dylan	Perry	George
Before	5 u + 103	5 u	6 u
Change 1	- 42	+ 42
Change 2	- 25		+ 25
Change 3		- 6	+ 6
After	5 u + 36	5 u + 36	6 u + 31

Amount that Perry had in the end = 5 u + 36 

Amount that George had in the end = 6 u + 31

Amount that Dylan had at first 
= 5 u + 36 + 42 + 25
= 5 u + 103

Amount that Perry and George had in the end is the same.

5 u + 36 = 6 u + 31
6 u - 5 u = 36 - 31

1 u = 5

Amount that Dylan and Perry had in the end is the same.

Amount that Dylan had in the end
= 5 u + 36
= 5 x 5 + 36
= 25 + 36
= $61

Amount that Dylan had at first
= 61 + 42 + 25
= $128

Difference in the amounts between Dylan and Perry at first
= 128 - 25
= $103

Answer(s): $103
