share $150 among john, mary and sarah so that each of the two girls recieves twice as much as john express mary's share as a fraction of the amount recieved by john and sarah
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "mary share:: 2x
\n" ); document.write( "sarah share:: 2x
\n" ); document.write( "john share::: x
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "2x + 2x + x = 150
\n" ); document.write( "5x = 150
\n" ); document.write( "x = 30
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Mary's share: 2x = $60
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Sarah + John share: 2x+x = 3x = 3*30 = $90
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Fraction: 60/90 = 2/3
