Question

Dave and Ryan share some money in the ratio 7:4. Dave got £28, how much did Ryan get?

Answer 1

Answer:

Ryan got 16 £

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Ryan get x £

and we know that Dave got 28 £

And the ration is in 7 : 4

So,

$\frac{Dave's Money}{Ryan's Money} = \frac{7}{4}$

⇒ $\frac{28}{x} = \frac{7}{4}$

⇒ $\frac{28}{7} = \frac{x}{4}$

⇒ $4 = \frac{x}{4}$

⇒ $16 = x$

Hence Ryan got 16 £
