Answer:

Ava's share = $20

Charlotte's share = $16

Step-by-step explanation:

15x + 12x = 36 : multiply each girl's age by same amount and adding gives $36

27x = 36 : add x terms

x = 36 / 27 : divide both sides of equation by 27

x = 4 / 3

Ava's share = 15x = 15 * 4/3 = 20

Charlotte's share = 12x = 12 * 4/3 = 16
