Answer 1

Eli , Freda and Geoff get £180 , £260 and £360 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Eli is 9 years old

Freda is 13 years old

Geoff is 18 years old

We are given that Eli,Freda and Geoff were given £800 to share in the ratio of their of ages.

Ratio = 9:13:18

Let the ratio be x

So, Eli get amount = 9x

Freda get amount = 13 x

Geoff get amount = 18x

ATQ

Eli get share = 9x=9(20)=180

Freda get share = 13(20)=260

Geoff get share = 18(20)=360

Hence Eli , Freda and Geoff get £180 , £260 and £360 respectively.

Eli is 9 years old

Freda is 13 years old

Geoff is 18 years old

We are given that Eli,Freda and Geoff were given £800 to share in the ratio of their of ages.

Ratio = 9:13:18

Let the ratio be x

So, Eli get amount = 9x

Freda get amount = 13 x

Geoff get amount = 18x

ATQ

9x+13x+18x=800\\40x=800\\x=\frac{800}{40}\\x=20

Eli get share = 9x=9(20)=180

Freda get share = 13(20)=260

Geoff get share = 18(20)=360

Hence Eli , Freda and Geoff get £180 , £260 and £360 respectively.
