Question

Marco and Justin received prize money in the ratio 3:4. Justin(who won more of the money) received $16, how much money did Marco receive

Answer 1

Macro receives $12.

Explanation:

Let the prize money received by Macro be 3x and that of Justin be 4x.

Justin received $16.

It means,

4x = 16

x = 4

Prize received by Macro = 3x

= 3(4)

= $12

Hence, Macro receives $12.
