abby and berry share £22 in the ration 3:1

how much do each person get?
Answered by Ms. Sue
Let x be the larger amount.

3/4 = x/22

Cross multiply and solve for x.

4x = 66
x = 66/4
x = 16.5

22 - 16.5 = ?

Divide £22 into (3+1) parts to get £5.50 for each part.
Berry gets 1 part, so £5.50. How much does abby get (3 parts)?
