Question

. One town had $64,000 to spend on streets, parks, and the library.

The money was divided in the ratio of 4 to 3 to 1.
How much money did each get?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Since the ratio is 4:3:1 there are a total of 8 parts

S:P:L=4:3:1

S=4(64000/8)=$32000

P=3(64000/8)=$24000

L=(64000/8)=$8000
