Four friends

Four friends shared the money. Vince got 1/4 of the total amount. Tony received 1/3 of the rest of the money, Joe got a half from the second residue, and George was left with 80. How much money did they have altogether?

Final Answer:

x =  320

Step-by-step explanation:


x/4+(x-x/4)/3+(x-(x/4+(x-x/4)/3))/2+80=x

3x = 960


x = 960/3 = 320

x = 320
