Answer: Gavin gets $99

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

LET amount  gotten by Jim be =x

amount  gotten by Gavin be = 3x

amount  gotten by Henry  be = 2  x 3x = 6x

Such that the total amount shared by the three of them can  be expressed as

x+ 3x + 6x = 330

Step 2

x+ 3x + 6x = 330

10x= 330

x= 330/10

x = 33

Jim gets $33

Gavin gets 3x= 3x 33= $99

Henry gets 6x= 6x 33= $198
