Answer: $3510

Explanation:

Fro th question, Alice, Bryan and Cindy share the cost of renting an apartment in the ratio 3:6:4 respectively and we.are informed that Alice pays $810 monthly.

Alice ratio = 3

Bryan's ratio = 6

Cindy's ratio = 4

Total ratio = 3+6+4 = 13

Since Alice has a ratio of 3, this means that Alice pays 3/13 of the total monthly rent. Let the total rent be x. Therefore,

3/13 of x = 810

3/13 × x = 810

3x/13 = 810

3x = 810 × 13

3x = 10530

x = 10530/3

x = 3510

Therefore, the monthly rent is $3510
