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? i need help

Answer 1

Answer:

let the money win by Natasha and Richard be 3x and 5x respectively

now given Natasha gets = 39

so, 3x = 39

x= 13

so the money win by Natasha = 39

and money win by Richard = 5x

= 5*13 = 65

hence the total money win by Natasha and Richard = 65+39

= 104

Answer 2

Answer:

total money won by Natasha and Richard = £104

Step-by-step explanation:

let the ratio of money = 3x:5x

∴ Total money = 8x

Money won by Natasha = 3x

∴ 3x = £39

∴ x = £(39/3)

     = £13

∴total money they won = 8x

                                       = £8(13)

                                       = £104
