Answer:
Eldest: $298500
Middle: $165250
Youngest: $149250
Explanation:
We can show the siblings like this:
e=2y (eldest)
m=16000+y (middle)
To find the value of y, or the youngest sibling, we use an equation.
2y+16000+y+y=613000
Simplify:
4y+16000=613000
Subtract 16000 on both sides:
4y=597000
Divide both sides by 4:
y=149250
The youngest received $149250.
Knowing this, we can plug in the numbers into the original formulas:
e=2(149250)=298500 ...or $298500
m=16000+149250=165250 ...or $165250
y=149250 ...or $149250
Add all those numbers up, and you reach $613000.
Find the factors of 16 and -24
