The total treasure equals 100 pieces of silver. It was not shared equally and no one had the same amount as any other.

Mary Reed, Henry Morgan and Francis Drake had 62 pieces of silver between them.

If Sir Francis Drake doubled the amount of silver he had and added one he had the same amount of silver that Sir Francis Drake and Henry Moore had between them.

If Blackbeard multipled his silver by 3 then deducted Blackbeatys amount of silver, this equalled the amount of silver that Sir Henry Morgan had.

Sir Henry Morgan had 22 pieces of silver.

How much silver did each one have?

Ta for the welcome. I still need to work at this puzzle as everyone receives a different amount of silver, no two persons are able to have the same amount.

Are there not five people?
I thought you wrote Moore instead of Morgan by accident.
