Answer:

1008

Step-by-step explanation:

Allen=A

Bob=B

Jane=J

So what we know is 

A=4B

J=2A

A+J=432

What we want to know is

A+J+B=?

So we need to solve for B

The easiest way would be to substitute into the A+J equation so

A+(2A)=432

3A=432

A=144

And we know that 4A=B so 4(144)=B thus B= 576

So 432+576=1008!

Answer:

Allen: 156 cards, Bob: 39 cards, Jane: 312 cards
