Answer 1

Answer:

answer is $ 35,725

Step-by-step explanation:

see total amount = $150045

it was donated by three companies a , b and c in the ratio 7:5:9

so first you need to sum up these ratios which equals 21. let's say that 21x= 150045 . here X comes out to be 7145. here, b's share is 5x. so 5x =$35725 which is the answer.
