Here's the answer to yesterday's Mango Math Wednesday Word Problem!






Henry and Buck have two horses worth a total of $560 and $840 in cash, for a total of $1400. Henry is entitled to 390/840 or 13/28 of the $1400 or $650.  Since he is keeping the two horses worth $560, Buck should give Henry $90 and keep $750.
