Question

Jim and Krutika win some money and share it in the ratio 2:3. Jim gets £10. How much did Krutika get?

Answer 1

£15

Explanation:

The 2 part of the ratio represents the £10 that Jim gets.

Divide the amount by 2 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

£10 ÷ 2 = £5 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus

3 parts = 3 × £5 = £15 ← amount Krutika gets
