Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

• Money received by Jan = 4x
• Money received by Jane = 9x
• Money received by Jello = 6x

According to the question,

→ Money received by Jan = $200

→ 4x = $200

→ x = $200 ÷ 4

→ x = 50 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀… ( 1 )

Now,

→ Money received by Jane = 9x

→ Money received by Jane = 9($50)

→ Money received by Jane = $450 [Ans]

And,

→ Money received by Jello = 6x

→ Money received by Jello = 6($50)

→ Money received by Jello = $300 [Ans]
