<pre>
Let x be the amount received by Eddie.


Then Karen received 3x, while Jane received 2*(3x) = 6x.


The total is


    x + 3x + 6x = 1500.


    10x = 1500  ====>  x = {{{1500/10}}} = 150.


<U>Answer</U>.  Eddie received  R150;  Karen received  3*R150 = R450;  Jane received  2*R450 = R900.


<U>CHECK</U>.   150 + 450 + 900 = 1500.    ! Correct !
