The concept of Ratios and shares.

let there be a common multiple 'x' for this ration, hence

5x + 7x + 3x = total money

here, 3x = $ 237

hence, x = $237/3 ==> $79

x = $ 79

hence now the total money that was shared =>

==> 5(79) + 7(79) + 3(79)

==> 395 + 553 + 237

==> $ 1185

The total money shared was $ 1185
