Answer 1

$\sf{\underline{\pink{\large{Question:-}}}}$

Mark and Henry win some money and share it in the ratio 1:3. Mark gets £9. How much did Henry get?

$\sf{\underline{\blue{\large{Answer:-}}}}$

Ratio = 1 : 3

Let Mark's share be 1x = x

and Henry's share be 3x

We know that Mark gets £9

So,

1x = x = £9

Then 3x = £(3 * 9) = £27

HENCE,

• Mark's share = £9
• Henry's share = £27
• Total money = Mark's share + Henry's share = £9 + £27 = £36

27
