Lulu Ruby and Emma went shopping went a total of £261. Each of them had different amount of money. Lulu spent 2/3 of her money Ruby spent 1/2 of her money and Emma spent 3/4 of her money. Each of them spent the same amount of money. how much did money did they begin with? please help me on this

Lulu= £81

Ruby=£108

Emma=£ 72

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Lulu's money be x

Let Ruby's money be y

Let Emma's money be z

The total money they went shopping with is = £261

So

x+y+z= 261

Lulu spent 2/3 of her money Ruby spent 1/2 of her money and Emma spent 3/4 of her money.

Money spent by each

Lulu= 2/3x

Ruby=1/2y

Emma= 3/4z

Each of them spent the same amount of money.

2/3x= 1/2y= 3/4z

2/3x= 1/2y

x(2*2)/3 = y

4/3(x) = y

2/3x=3/4z

x(2*4)/(3*3)= z

8/9x= z

x+y+z= 261

x+4/3x+8/9x= 261

9x +12x +8x= 2349

29x= 2349

X= 81

4/3(x) = y

4/3(81) = y

108= y

8/9x= z

8/9(81)= z

72= z
