Question

Natasha and Richard win some money and share it in the ratio 3:5. Natasha gets £39. How much did they win in total?

Answer 1

Answer:

they just get a total of 104

Answer 2

Answer:

104

Step-by-step explanation:

$\textsf{Let Richard share be x}$

$\implies$ $\mathsf{{\Large\frac{3}{5}}={\Large\frac{39}{x}}}$

$\implies$ $\sf{3×x=39×5}$

$\implies$ $\sf{x= {\Large\frac{39×5}{3}}}$

$\implies$ $\boxed{\sf{x=65}}$

$\therefore$ $\sf{Richard\:share=\pounds65}$

$\textsf{Total prize money won = 39+65 =\pounds104}$
