1. You have that:

 - <span> "x" represents the smaller number and "y" represents the larger number. 
 - </span><span>A number is equal to 3 times a smaller number: y=3x
 - </span><span> The sum of the smaller number and 4 is the larger number: y=x+4

 2. Therefore, you have the following system of equations:

 y=3x   (i)
 y=x+4   (ii)

 3. When you solve it, you obtain:

 3x=x+4
 3x-x=4
 2x=4
 x=2

 y=3x
 y=(3)(2)
 y=6

 4. </span><span>Which two equations represent the situation? The answer is:
</span>
 y=3x 

 y=x+4

£440 is divided between David, Mark &amp; Henry so that David gets twice as much as Mark, and Mark gets three times as much as H
Lesechka [4]

Mark received £ 132

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that £440 is divided between David, Mark & Henry

Let "d" be the share of david

Let "m" be the share of mark

Let "h" be the share of henry

Total amount is 440

Therefore,

share of david + share of mark + share of henry = 440

d + m + h = 440 ------- eqn 1

<em><u>David gets twice as much as Mark</u></em>

d = 2m ----- eqn 2

<em><u>Mark gets three times as much as Henry</u></em>

m = 3h

h = \frac{m}{3}  ------ eqn 3

<em><u>Substitute eqn 2 and eqn 3 in eqn 1</u></em>

2m + m + \frac{m}{3} = 440\\\\\frac{6m + 3m + m}{3} = 440\\\\10m = 1320\\\\m = 132

Thus Mark received £ 132
