Answer 2

Explanation:

Given :-

• Ali and mo share a sum of money in the ratio ali : mo = 9 : 7 .
• Ali receives 600 more than mo .

And we need to find out how much each receives .Let us take that

• Mo received x .
• Ali will get x + 600.

According to the Question :-

`\implies (9)/(7)=(x+600)/(x)\\\\\implies 9x = 7x + 4200 \\\\\implies 2x = 4200 \\\\\implies x = 2100`

Therefore :-

• Ali = x+600 = 2700
• Mo = x = 2100
