If you think about it, you can figure it out.
Think of gasoline.  Let's suppose in one car you put 2 galllons second car 3 gallons and third car 4 gallons.  If they all start at the same time which will be the first one to travel 10 miles?

wolf1728 · Answer

That's my point - they all have different amounts of gas just as the 3 accounts all have different amounts in them.
