Answer:

Arwa: $72

Tasmiyah: $108

Nibras: $180

Explanation:

To find how much money each person should get according to the ratio given, we need to divide the total amount of money by the sum of the ratio.

2 + 3 + 5 = 10

Now divide 360 by 10.

360 ÷ 10 = 36

Multiply the 36 to each ratio, for example:

Arwa gets 2 × 36; $72

Tasmiyah gets 3 × 36; $108

Nibras gets 5 × 36; $180
