Answer 1

Given:

Ann, Ben , Cheryl share money ratio 3:7:10 .

Ben get £660 more than Ann.

To find:

The total amount they shared.

Solution:

Let Ann, Ben , Cheryl share money 3x, 7x, 10x respectively.

Ben get £660 more than Ann. So, difference of their share must be £660.

`7x-3x=660`

`4x=660`

`x=(660)/(4)`

`x=165`

Now, the total amount they shared is:

`Total=3x+7x+10x`

`Total=20x`

`Total=20(165)`

`Total=3300`

Therefore, the total amount they shared is £3300.
