Question

Ivan and Tanya share £150 in the ratio 4:1. Work out how much more Ivan gets compared to Tanya

​

Answer 1

Ivan gets 90 Euros more than how much Tanya has

Explanation:

First,take the number as "x"

Total amount of money =150

Ratio=4:1

let the number be "x"

So the equation here is:

4x+1x=150

5x=150

x=150/5

x=30

therefore,ivan gets=4 x "30"=120

tanya gets=1 x "30"=30

difference=120-30=90

so the answer is 90 euros

Answer 2

Ivan gets 120 and Tanya gets 30
Ivan gets 90 more than Tanya
