Sagot :

Answer:  £66

Your teacher may want you to leave off the pounds sign.

==========================================================

Explanation:

x = amount Bill gets

3x = amount Sam gets, because he gets three times as much

x+3x = 4x = total amount of money

4x = 88

x = 88/4

x = 22

Bill gets £22

3x = 3*22 = 66

Sam gets £66

Note that 22+66 = 88 to help confirm the answer.
