The following are the amount each person receive:
- a. 6 : 4 = $300 : $200
- b. 1 : 4 : 5 = $50 : $200 : $250
- c. 1 : 8 : 1 = $50 : $400 : $50
- d. 8 : 9 : 8 = $160 : $180 : 160
- e. 10 : 5 : 4 : 1 = $250 : $125 : $100 : $25
How to find the amount each person receive?
a. 6 : 4
Total ratio = 6 + 4
= 10
6/10 × 500
= $300
4/10 × 500
= $200
b. 1 : 4 : 5
Total ratio = 1 + 4 + 5
= 10
1/10 × 500
= $50
4/10 × 500
= $200
5/10 × 500
= $250
c. 1 : 8 : 1
Total ratio = 1 + 8 + 1
= 10
1/10 × 500
= $50
8/10 × 500
= $400
1/10 × 500
= $50
d. 8 : 9 : 8
Total ratio = 8 + 9 + 8
= 25
8/25 × 500
= $160
9/25 × 500
= $180
8/25 × 500
= $160
e. 10 : 5 : 4 : 1
Total ratio = 10 + 5 + 4 + 1
= 20
10/20 × 500
= $250
5/20 × 500
= $125
4/20 × 500
= $100
1/20 × 500
= $25
