A sum of money is distributed among w,x,y,z in the proportion of 4:2:5:3. If y gets $500 more than z, what is the x's share?  Select the correct option:
A) $4000 B) $500 C) $2500 D) $2800 E) $1400
Let the shares of w,x,y,z are 4a,2a,5a,3a   5a-3a = 500   2a = 500,a=250   x's share = 2a = $500   Answer is $500
