Ollie forgot his money. Mandy gave Ollie one-fifth of his money, Luke gave Ollie one-fourth of his money and Nicholas gave Ollie one-third of his money. How much of the group’s money does Ollie have now?

no way to tell, unless each of the three had the same amount. In that case,
1/3 (1/5 + 1/4 + 1/3) = 47/180
1/3 (1/5 + 1/4 + 1/3) = 47/180
