Answer:

Phoebe=180

Andy=60

Polly=30

Step-by-step explanation:

let Polly be x

:Andy becomes 2x while Phoebe becomes 6x

therefore 6x+2x+x=270

9x=270

x=30

Hence: Phoebe=6x=180

Andy =2x=60

Polly=x=30

Answer = 30

Reason:

Let Polly be x,

Hence Andy = 2x.

Then Pheobe = 6x [ie 3*(2x)]

Therefore, 6x + 2x + x = 270

Result x = 30

Pheobe gets 6x = 6*30 = 180

Andy gets 2x = 2*30 = 60

Polly gets x = 30

Total = 270
