Question

$500 is shared in ration 2:3 between two girls how much money did each girl receive workout please step by step ​

Answer 1

100:350 simplified:
`(2)/(7)`

Explanation

A ratio of 2:3 means that for every item of A, we can expect of item B. Therefore, our total group is 2+3=5.

Calculate expected number of item A:

`(2x500)/(5)`

Expected number of item A:
`(1000)/(5)`

This fraction can be reduced by 5 giving you:

Expected number of item A: 200

Calculate expected number of item B:

`(3x500)/(5)`

Expected number of item B:
`(1500)/(5)`

This fraction can be reduced by 5 giving you:

Expected number of item B: 300
