Past paper question

. The number 65 bus goes on a circular route shown in the diagram below.
The cost of travelling between any two stops is worked out by adding
together the fares between consecutive stages. For example, if it costs 40p
to travel from A to B, and 37p to travel from B to C, then the cost of a ticket
from A to C would be 77p.
If it costs 24p to go from C to D, and 97p to go from C to E, what is the fare
from D to E? ________
Mavis, Ethel and her friend Dot all get on the bus at E. Mavis buys a ticket
from E to G and is charged 82p. Ethel kindly buys a ticket for both herself
and her friend. Ethel is going all the way to G, whereas Dot is going to F.
Ethel is charged £1.17. What is the fare from F to G? ________
The total cost of one ticket from G to J and one ticket from G to I is £1
The total cost of one ticket from G to J and one ticket from H to J is £1.20
The total cost of one ticket from G to J, one ticket from G to H, and one ticket
from I to J, is £1.30.
What is the cost of one ticket from G to J? _________

Just need help with the last part as I have hit a blind spot. I have pasted the whole question as it has information to help get to the answer.
Can't copy the diagram but it is a circle with A-G written in alphabetical order around it
Thank You
