Question 301373
I have a sum of $30,632.12 that needs to be separated the following three ways:
.50, .50, and .25  How do i do this breakdown?
<pre>
Let the part that is .25 be x

Then each of the parts that are .50 are twice as much or 2x,

So we add up the parts 

2x + 2x + x = $30632.12
         5x = $30632.12
          x = $6126.424

so 2x = $12252.848

So the .25 part is $6126.424 and each of the 
.50 parts are $12252.848
