Solution

Amount saved by Zoe:
12 + 10 + 15 + 16 + 19 = 72 dollars

Amount saved by Betty:
18 + 14 + 15 + 16 + 20 = 83 dollars

Amount saved by Delphy:
14 + 16 + 14 + 18 + 13 = 75 dollars

Amount saved by Kate:
15 + 19 + 17 + 16 + 17 = 84 dollars

Thus, the amount saved by Zoe and Delphy:
72 + 75 = 147 dollars

The amount saved by Betty and Kate:
83 + 84 = 167 dollars

Thus, the amount saved more by Betty and Kate = Amount saved by them – Amount saved by Zoe and Delphy
= 167 – 147 = 20 dollars

Hence, the correct answer is 20 dollars.
