Carlos, Jim and Carrey were at the beach playing and they decided to gather some seashells. Jim collected 27 seashells, which was 5 more than what Carlos collected. Carlos collected twice as many as Carrey. They gathered all their seashells and divided them equally between themselves. How many did each person get?
Jim collected 27 seashells, 5 more than what Carlos collected, which means Carlos collected 27-5 = <<27-5=22>>22 seashells
Carlos collected twice as many as Carrey did, meaning Carrey collected 22/2 = <<22/2=11>>11 seashells
In total, they collected 27+22+11 = <<27+22+11=60>>60 seashells
They divided them into three equal group, getting 60/3 = <<60/3=20>>20 each
