Question

3 of 6

Sushil, Natasha & Fiona share some money in the ratio 1:4:2
In total, Sushil and Fiona receive £39
How much does Natasha get?​

Answer 1

Amount got by Natasha = £52

Explanation:

Given that:

Ratio of Sushil, Natasha and Fiona's share = 1:4:2

Amount of money received by Sushil and Fiona = £39

Let,

x be the number of times.

x+2x = 39

3x = 39

Dividing both sides by 3

`(3x)/(3)=(39)/(3)\\x=13`

Share of Natasha = 4x = 4(13) = £52

Hence,

Amount got by Natasha = £52
