Asked by Lolai

A sum of money is divided between three people in the ratio 1:2:1/2. If the smallest share amounts to $48, what is the total Sum of money?
Answered by Reiny
1:2:1/2
= 2:4:1 -----> ratios usually are not expressed in fraction form

let their shares be 2x, 4x, and x
but x = 48
so 2x = 96
and 4x = 192

add them up
