Question

Nana, Marcus, and ken shared 364$ among themselves.marcus receives 4 times as much as ken.Nana received twice as Marcus.How much money did Marcus recieve?

Answer 1

$104

Explanation:

let nana share be x

Marcus =y

Ken = z

Marcus was given 4 times that of Ken = 4z

Nana receives twice that if Marcus = 2y = 2×4z = 8z

Ken still remains z

Total share = 4z +8z +z = 14z

14z = 364

Z = 364÷14

Z = $26

Hence, Marcus shall be given 4z = 4×26 = 104

Marcus had $104
