Question

Mother divided the mony among ron,Sam and marai in the ratio 2:3:5 if married got 150$ , find the total amount and the mony receive by ron and Sam?

Answer 1

Ron - 60

Sam - 90

Answer 2

Ron received: $60

Marai received: $150 [given]

Sam received: $90

Explanation:

Ron Sam Marai

2 : 3 : 5

If Marai received $150 dollars, we can divide that by 5 to find the value of "1" in this ratio

150 / 5 = 30

Ron got 2 (2 = 2 × 1 ; we know that "1" has a value of 30; 2 × 30 = 60)

So Ron got $60

Sam got 3 (3 = 3 × 1 ; "1" has value of 30; 3 × 30 = 90)

So,

Ron received: $60

Marai received: $150 [given]

Sam received: $90

hope this helps!!
