Question

Ally and bo share £50 in the ratio 1 : 4.
How much more money does Bo get than Ally?

Answer 1

£30

Explanation:

If Ally and Bo share £50 in the ratio 1:4, this means that the total ratio of the amount of money they receive is 1+4=5.

Ally's share = (1/5) x £50 = £10

Bo's share = (4/5) x £50 = £40

Then we take

£40 - £10 = £30

So, Bo gets £30 more than Ally.
