Question

Hare $50 among Terry, Leroy and Johnson in the ratio 1:3:6. How much money does Johnson get? 1 point

Answer 1

His share is $30

Explanation:

Here, we are interested in knowing the amount of money that Johnson get.

From the ratio, we can see that Johnson’s ratio is the largest at 6

so to calculate his share of the $50, we add all the ratios together = 1 + 3 + 6 = 10

Now his share would be his ratio over the total * 50

= 6/10 * 50 = $30
