Answer:

£72

Step-by-step explanation:

let Malachy amount be x then Gordon's is 3x and Sara is 2 × 3x = 6x

Then

x + 3x + 6x = 10x = £240 ( divide both sides by 10 )

x = £24

Gordon gets 3x = 3 × £24 = £72

Gordon gets £72

Explanation:
Sarah gets twice as much as Gordon and Gordon gets three times as much as Malachy, which means that Malachy gets 1 part of the money, Gordon gets 3 parts because he has three times as much as Malachy, and Sarah gets 6 because she gets twice as much as Gordon. As a ratio from Sarah to Gordon to Malachy its 6:3:1. All of that adds up to £240. If u add 6+3+1 it gives you 10. 240/10 is £24. And Gordon has 3 parts so you do 3x24 which gives you £72
