Answer:

Eli - 180

Freda - 260

Geoff - 360

Explanation:

In order to find that, you need to find out how much they should get per year. In order to find this, start by adding together their years to find out how many there are total.

9 + 13 + 18 = 40

Now knowing there are 40 years, divide the amount of money they have by 40.

800/40 = 20

This means for every year each was alive, they should get 20. To find each individual amount, multiply their age by 20.

9 * 20 = 180

13 * 20 = 260

18 * 20 = 360
