Let me see if I can solve this on my own.

So $94 is the first amount.

It got divided so, 94÷2 = $47

So, It's either $47 or this.

47 + 47 (or times 2) = 94 again. But gets five more dollars than Leon. So 94+5= 99 then -10 = 89 but 89 ÷ 2 = 44.5 but since money can't really be half. It's eithier $44 or $45 but in my opinion is $45.

So, these are the most reasonable answers. $47 or $45. You can pick the answer that you thinks makes more sense. This took a long time so I hope this helps!
