Question :

Share $4500 between Jane and Mary in the ratio 4 : 5, calculate the amount that each received.

To find :

The amount received by each

Solution :

Ratio of Jane and Mary = 4 : 5

Sum of ratio = 4 + 5 = 9

 \small \sf   Jane  \: received =  \frac{ratio \: of \: Jane}{sum \: of \: ratio}  \times 4500

 \sf \small \dashrightarrow \frac{4}{9}  \times 4500

 \sf \small \dashrightarrow \frac{4}{ \cancel{9}}  \times  \cancel{4500}

So Jane received $ 2000

 \sf \small Mary \:  received =  \frac{ratio \: of \: mary}{sum \: of \: ratio}  \times 4500

\sf\small\dashrightarrow \frac{5}{9}   \times 4500

 \sf\small\dashrightarrow \frac{5}{ \cancel{9}}   \times  \cancel{4500}

So Mary received $ 2500
