Hi,
Pls help in the working steps for following question from Rosyth SA1 2011 Q12:
Four children Min, Nathan, Tom and Caleb each have some savings. The amount of money Nathan has is 1/3 of the total amount of money Tom and Caleb have. The amount of money Tom has is 1/4 of the total amount of money Nathan and Caleb have. The amount of money Min has is 1/5 of the total amount of money Nathan, Tom and Caleb have.

A similar question was discussed earlier.
Four children Min, Nat, Tom and Caleb each have savings. The amount of money Nat has is 1/3 of the total amount of money Tom , Min and Caleb have. The amount of money Tom has is 1/4 of the total amount of money Nat , Min And Caleb have. The amount of money Min has is 1/5 of the total amount of Nat, Tom and Caleb have. If Caleb saves $1035 . How much do the four children have altogether?
The total amount of money in the three scenarios is the same. Make the total number of units the same.
A common multiple of 4, 5 and 6 is 60.
Nat : (Tom + Min + Caleb) ------ 1:3 ((4) ------ 15:45 (60)
Tom : (Nat + Min + Caleb) ------ 1:4 (5) ------ 12:48 (60)
Min : (Nat + Tom + Caleb) ------ 1:5 (6) ------ 10:50 (60)
Nat ------ 15 units
Tom ------ 12 units
Min ------- 10 units
Caleb ------ 23 units
23 units ------ 1035
1 unit ------ 45
60*45 ------ 2700
