$3.6

${\huge{\blue{\underline{\underline{Given:}}}}}$

Ratio of Jayden and Coden's share is 2:50

Coden's share = $ 140

Jayden's share = $ ???

${\huge{\red{\underline{\underline{Solution:}}}}}$

We can use the fractional method of comparision ...

Jayden's share let be x...

$\frac{2}{50} = \frac{x}{140}$

$by \: cross \: multiplication \: we \: get \:$

$50x = 2 \times 140$

$x = \frac{2 \times 140}{50}$

$x = 1.8 \times 2 = 3.6$

Jayden's share = x = $ 3.6 ...
