the shares are 2:2:1, so there are 5 parts in total
boys get 2/5 each
Mary gets 1/5
be careful on the last part
Share $1500 among james, peter and mary so that each of the two boys receives twice as much as mary. Calculate the amount of money mary received.
Express Mary's share as a fraction of the total amount.
Express Peters share as a fraction of the amount received by james and mary.
