Figure the fraction of box tops each class collected, then multiply the prize money by that fraction.

Total box tops = 3760 +2301 +1855 = 7916

Mr Coronado's class's fraction: 3760/7916 × $600 = $284.99

Mrs De Souza's class's fraction: 2301/7916 × $600 = $174.41

Mr Nost's class's fraction: 1855/7916 × $600 = $140.60
