Answer:
- $1000
- $600
- $250
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t represent the third-place prize value. Then the first place prize has a value of 2t+500, and the second-place prize is 2t+100. The total value of the three prizes is ...
t +(2t+500) +(2t+100) = 1850
5t +600 = 1850
5t = 1250
t = 250 . . . . . . . . . . . third place prize
2t +500 = 1000 . . . . first place prize
1000 -400 = 600 . . .second place prize
The prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places are $1000, $600, and $250, respectively.

This is because there are 40 boxes in total. The chance of a white box being handed out is 10/40. If a white box is handed out as a prize, there are going to be 39 boxes left, but only 9 of those 39 boxes would be white.
Ideally, tree diagrams should be used to solve such problems.
