Answer:
Total money win by the Gavyn and Alex be $45 .
Explanation:
Let us assume that the x be the scalar multiple of Gavyn and Alex money .
As given
Gavyn and Alex win some money and share it in the ratio 3:2.
Thus
Gavyn share = 3x
Alex share = 2x
Gavyn gets $27.
Thus
3x = 27
x = 9
Thus
Gavyn share = 3 × 9
= $27
Alex share = 2 × 9
= $ 18
Thus
Total win = Gavyn share + Alex share
Putting the values in the above
= $27 + $18
= $ 45
Therefore the total money win by the Gavyn and Alex be $45 .
