Answer:

Miguel has $63

Lisbeth has $11

David has $21

Step-by-step explanation:

let Miguel share be M

let Lisbeth share be L

let David share be D

from the question, we know that

M=3D

L=D-10.

M+L+D=95

thus,

3D+(D-10)+D= 95

3D+D-10+D= 95

5D-10 = 95

5D= 95+10

5D= 105

D= 105/5

D= 21.

thus,

M = 3D = 3×21

= $63

L = D-10 = 21-10

= $11

(63+21+11)$ = $95
