Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

In Florida, if a parent has other children from a previous marriage, is this taken into account when determining the child support that parent pays for another child? In other words, my husband has 2 other children from a previous marriage. He is paying child support to his other ex-wife for a 3rd child, but are the first two children taken into account when determining his obligation to the third child, as he pays child support for them all? Thanks.
