Given that the meal cost is shared by Adam and his dad is in the ratio 2:3 respectively, and the amount of money paid by Adam's dad was 52.20, thus the
total cost of meal will be:
Total ratio will be (2+3)=5
total cost will be:
5/3*52.20
=87
Thus we conclude that the total cost of food was 87 pounds
