Let's assume the total amount of money that Jane has is m. Since Jean has 3 times as much money as Jane, he has 3 * m = 3m. Combined, Jean and Jane have a total of m + 3m = $76. This evaluates to 4m = $76. The total amount of money that Jane has, represented by m, is m = $76 / 4. Jane has m = $19. Since Jean has three times as much money as Jane, Jean has 3 * $19 = $57. So, the answer is 57.
