Tamara, Nora, and Lulu have been saving to pay off a $40 debt. So far, Nora has saved five times what Lulu has, but three times Tamara’s savings. Lulu has saved $6. If they pay off the debt and divide the remaining money equally, how many dollars will each girl get? Let's answer step by step:

Nora has saved 5 * 6 = 30 dollars. This means that Tamara has saved 30 / 3 = 10 dollars. All together, they have saved 30 + 10 + 6 = 46 dollars. If they pay off the debt they will remain with 46 - 40 = 6 dollars. Dividing the remaining money equally will give each girl 6 / 3 = 2 dollars. The answer: 2.
