<PRE><B>Question 989228</B>
 A father distributed $765 among his four sons. The share of the second was 15 more than double the first. The share of the third son was $15 more than the second. The share of the fourth son was $15 more than double the third. Find the share of each son. 
------
1st: x
2nd: 2x+15
3rd: 2x+30
4th: 4x+75
------------
Equation:
x + 2x+15 + 2x+30 + 4x+75 = 765
-------
9x + 120 = 765
9x = 645
x = $71.67
etc.
