Answer:

Peter received 96 tomatoes.
Gem received 112 tomatoes.
Tom received 288 tomatoes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total number of tomatoes = 496

Number of tomatoes Peter received = x

Number of tomatoes Gem received = x + 16

Number of tomatoes Tom received = 3x

So, according to the question, 

x + (x + 16) + 3x = 496

5x + 16 = 496

5x = 480

Thus, 

x = 480/5 = 96

So, 

Peter received 96 tomatoes

Gem received 96 + 16 = 112 tomatoes.

Tom received 3 × 96 = 288 tomatoes.
