O + D = (3/4) M
D + H = (3/5) M
O = H + 36
================
H + 36 + D = (3/4) M
H + D = (3/5) M
-------------------------- subtract
36 = (3/4 - 3/5) M = (15-12) M /20 = 3 M /20
M = 12*20 = 240
D + H = (3/5) M
O = H + 36
================
H + 36 + D = (3/4) M
H + D = (3/5) M
-------------------------- subtract
36 = (3/4 - 3/5) M = (15-12) M /20 = 3 M /20
M = 12*20 = 240
