Question

$100,000 is shared among three friends, Anna, Louise and Lacey in the ratio.7: 10:13 respectively. Calculate the amount each receives. ​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Set up an equation:

7x + 10x + 13x = 100000 and solve for x:

30x = 100000 so

x = 3333.33

Anna gets 7(3333.33) = 23333.31

Louise gets 10(3333.33) = 33333.33

Lacey gets 13(3333.33) = 43333.29
