Answer 1

Total amount is Rs 45000.

One friend takes 1/4 part of Rs 45000=

(1/4) ×45000=11250Rs

Remaining Amount =45000-11250=33750rs

Now this 33750 rs is equally divided among two friends =33750÷2=16875rs

I hope u have understood.

Ratio of one friend : two friends =

11250:33750

=1:3 ans

Answer 2

The required ratio is 1:3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

First one gets the 1/4 th of the total amount.

$\frac{1}{4}\times45000= 11250$

Therefore, first one gets the 11250 rupees.

The rest of money is 45000-11250=33750

We need to find the amount taken by one of the friends to the total amount taken by the other two friends together.

The required ratio is:

$11250:33750$

Simplify the ratio

$1:3$

Hence, the required ratio is 1:3.
