Martha has saved $2,700 to share with her family. she divides one-third of her savings equally between her two children, lola and tanner. tanner further divides his share equally among his three kids. how much money did tanner give to each of his kids?

If Martha is giving only 1/3 of her savings to share, you first must calculate 1/3 of 2,700. 2,700 ÷ 3 = 900 -- meaning that only 900 dollars go to Loa & Tanner; the money combined. You then have to see the amount that Tanner receives, meaning that you will have to divide 900 by 2. 900 ÷ 2 = 450. Tanner then gives his three kids all of his share. You would then divide 450 by 3. 450 ÷ 3 = 150, meaning each of his kids got $150.
