Question

In a contest the prizes were to be $100 for the first place, $50 for second and $20 for the third. Instead, there was 2-way tie for the first place and one third place. If each first prize is twice the value of the third place award, how much did each first place prize winner received?

Do you have the data correct?

2 * $20 = $40

However, it would have been more equitable to give $75 for each first prize winner.

I hope this helps.
