119 is total. Less ben and sherman (81) will be how many huili has. So just minus the answer from how many ben and huili has (65) to get how many ben has.

It is not correct to subtract 81 and 65 from the total of 119 to get 27. Since the total has Ben, Huili and Sherman, subtract Ben and Huili's sale of 81 to get Sherman's sale of 28. Then, subtract Sherman's sale of 28 from Ben and Sherman's sale of 65 to get Ben's sale of 37.
