Question

Malachy, Gavin and Gavyn share £18 in a ratio 3:1:2. How much money does each person get?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

18×(3/6) = 9

18×(1/6) = 3

18×(2/6) = 6

Answer 2

Answer:

£9, £3, £6 (respectively)

Step-by-step explanation:

3:1:2

Malachy: 3x

Gavin: x

Gavyn: 2x

3x+x+2x = 18

⇒ 6x = 18

⇒ x = 18÷6

⇒ x = 3

Malachy = 3x = 3×3 = £9

Gavin = x = £3

Gavyn = 2x = 2×3 = £6
