Answer:
£84.5
Explanation:
Given ratio = 2:5:6
Amount that Louis got from the total amount = £39
Step 1: Add the ratio together
2+5+6=13
Step 2: covert the given ratio into fraction
George ratio=2/13
Charlotte ratio=5/13
Louis ratio= 6/13
✓LET THE AMOUNT THAT WAS SHARED AMONG THEM= Y
But we know that Louis got £39, then we can compute How much did they shared using "Louiz" shrare as
Louis ratio= 6/13 × Y= £39
= 6Y/13 = 39
Cross multiply
13×39= 6Y
507= 6Y
Y= 84.5
Hence, the amount they shared was £84.5
