K = Kofi's money

A = Amazon's money

They have a total of 4200 GH$.

This means:

K + A = 4200

Shared GH$ in the ratio 2:1 means:

K / A = 2 : 1

K / A = 2

Multiply both sides by A

K = 2 A

Put this value in equation

K + A = 4200

2 A + A = 4200

3 A = 4200

A = 4200 / 3 = 1400

K = 2 A = 2 • 1400 = 2800

Check result:

K + A = 2800 + 1400 = 4200

K / A = 2800 / 1400 = 1400 • 2 / 1400 • 1

K / A = 2 = 2 :1
