Question

Pheobe Andy and polly share £270 pheobe gets three times the amount of Andy who gets twice as much as polly

Answer 1

Polly get 30, Andy gets 60, and Pheobe gets 180

Explanation:

if polly gets one, thats one part, and andy gets twice whatever polly has, thats 2 parts, and pheobe gets 3 times what andy gets, that mean pheobe gets 6 parts, andy 3, and polly 1. that makes 9 parts. Divide 270 by 9, and you get 30. thats one part. so polly gets 30, and andy gets twice that, which is 60, and pheobe gets 3 times what andy had, which is 180.

hey!!

here is your answer >>>

the total money is 270 , it is shared among three people .

let's take the amount of Polly as X

then, the amount of Andy would be 2x

then, the amount of Phoebe would be 6x

the sum of 6x,2x and x is 270!.

let's add them up,

9x = 270

x = 30!.

Polly = £30

Andy= £60

Phoebe = £180
