Answer:
Their total sum will be 2400.
Step-by-step explanation:
the ratio of sum of money between late and Nora is 3:5. from this we derive N=5k/3
when Nora gives Kate $150, their ratio becomes
k+150/n-150 =7/9
solving this we get 9k-7n=-2400
substituting the value of n and then solving we get k=900 and then soling for n we get N= 1500
