Answer:

Amount Dan has = $17

Amount Ann has = $27

Amount Pablo has = $34

Explanation:

Total amount they have = $78

Let

Amount Dan has = x

Amount Ann has = x + 10

Amount Pablo has = 2x

Total = Dan + Ann + Pablo

78 = x + (x + 10) + 2x

78 = x + x + 10 + 2x

78 = 4x + 10

78 - 10 = 4x

68 = 4x

x = 68/4

x = 17

Amount Dan has = x = $17

Amount Ann has = x + 10

= 17 + 10

= $27

Amount Pablo has = 2x

= 2(17)

= $34
