Answer:

£22 : £44 : £66 : £110

Explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio, 1 + 2 + 3 + 5 = 11 parts

Divide the amount by 11 to find the value of 1 part of the ratio

£242 ÷ 11 = £22 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, then

2 parts = 2 × £22 = £44

3 parts = 3 × £22 = £66

5 parts = 5 × £22 = £110

Then £242 in the ratio 1 : 2 : 3 : 5 is £22 : £44 : £66 : £110
