Wesley, Neave, Asher and Justin paid a total of $132 for a souvenir. Justin paid ⁴₇ of what the rest paid. Wesley paid 50% of what the rest paid. Neave and Asher paid an equal amount of money. How much did Asher pay?

Wesley	Neave	Asher	Justin	Total
7x3			4x3	11x3
1x11	2x11			3x11
	1	1
11 u	5 u	5 u	12 u	33 u

50%= ⁵⁰₁₀₀= ¹₂
Wesley's share : Total share = 1 : 2

The total amount paid for the souvenir is repeated.  Make the total amount the same.  LCM of 11 and 3 is 33.

Amount that Neave, Asher and Justin paid = 22 u

Amount that Neave and Asher paid
= 22 u - 12 u
= 10 u

The amount that Neave and Asher each paid is the same.

Amount that Neave and Asher each paid
= 10 u ÷ 2
= 5 u

Cost of the souvenir = 33 u

33 u = 132

1 u = 132 ÷ 33 = 4

Amount that Asher paid
= 5 u
= 5 x 4
= $20

Answer(s): $20
