Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

$60

Step-by-step explanation:

Winning = $500

Mildred  = 50% of $500 = 0.5 x $50 = $250

Left = $500 - $250 = $250

Berice = 20% of $250 = 0.2 x $250 = $50

Left = $250 - $50 = $200

Alice = 40% of $200 = 0.4 x $200 = $80

Left  = $200 - $80 = $120

Bea = 50% of $120 = 0.5 x $120 = $60

Left = $120 - $60 = $60
