Let x be the total amount of money .

Emily's share =(1/3)x

Given Emily's share = 45000

so (1/3)x = 45000

x = 135000

Eric's share = (2/5)x

Eric puts 75% of his share in bank

= (2/5)*x*0.75

= (2/5)*135000*0.75

= 40500

Cat's share

= 1-([(1/3)*x] + [(2/5)*x])

= (4/15)*x

= (4/15)*135000

= 36000
