When their report cards came back, Pete, Chris, and Dina realized that they shared the number of A’s in the ratio 4:2:5. If Pete got 14 more A’s than Chris, how many A’s did Dina get?

When Pete has 14 more A's than Chris, his score would equal 28 A's, Chris would be 14 A's and Dina's would equal 35 A's.

Pete receives twice as much as Chris in the ration and Dina is one more than Pete which would be 7 plus how many A's Pete had.
