Question

Sara and Gordon win some money and share it in the ratio 5:3. Sara gets £30 more than Gordon. How much did Gordon get?

Answer 1

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

if Sara has 30 more than Gordon and the ratio is 5:3. then sara has 2× X more than Gordon. 30 ÷ 2 = 15.

15 = X

15 × 3 = 45

Sara has 75
