Sara got  £75.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total amount win by Pip and Sara be 'x'

Sara gets amount = S

Pip gets £30 more than Sara = (S+30)

X = (S+30) + S

  = 2S + 30

Their winning amount ratio = 7 : 5 = \frac{7}{5}

\frac{7}{5}=\frac{S+30}{S}

7s = 5(s+30)

7s = 5s + 150

2s = 150

s = 150/2

s = 75

Sara gets £75.

Pip gets = 75 + 30 = £105

Sara got  £75.
