An amount of money is shared between Kofi and Ama in the ratio 3:5.If Ama received 4,650.00,what is the Kofi’s share ??

Answer 1

Kofi got 3x
Anna got 5x
3x+5x = 4,650,000
x = 581,250
Kofi got 1,743,750

or,

k + 5/3 k = 4650000
k = 3/8 * 4650000
k = 1743750

Answer 2

The 4,650,000 is not the total , it is Ama's share, so
5x = 4650000
x = 930,000

so Kofi's share
= 3x
= 2,790,000

Answer 3

ouch!
Nice save
