Answer:

231

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's consider that Gavin got X pounds.

Then Henry gets 3 times as much as Gavin => 3X

And Mark gets twice as much as Henry => 2 * 3X

Together they get 770, so:

X + 3X + 2*3X = 770

10X = 770  =>  X = 77

As we mentioned, Henry gets 3X, so

3X = 3 * 77 = 231
