Question

£880 is divided between Jim, Krutika & Natasha so that Jim gets twice as much as Krutika, and Krutika gets three times as much as Natasha. How much does Krutika get?

Answer 1

264 pounds

Explanation:

Write the question in the form of a ratio:

Natasha: Krutika: Jim

1:3:6

Now, we divide the amount of 880 in the ratio.

there are 10 parts in total.

1 part = 880 divided by 10 = 88.

since Krutika gets 3 parts, she gets 88 x 3 = 264
