Problem of the Day

Classic Mustangs

None of us really got along as friends, but we shared several things in common. We had some joint business dealings and a love of old Mustangs. We only liked the ones from 1964 ½ through the 1968 model year. When we found out that the collection of Mustangs from the Sparks Auto Museum was going to be auctioned off, we put our minds and our money together. Instead of bidding against each other, we decided to bid as a group on each Mustang available. We set a maximum price we would bid, and quite frankly, none of us had any favorites, we loved them all equally. We also agreed to divide “out take” as follows: half to Travis because he was usually the big money on our projects, ¼ to Sandra as she was usually the brains that got things done, and I was to get a 1/6 share. In the end we were the winning bidders on 11 Mustangs. How many Mustangs does each of us get?
