Respuesta :

Ramon got $17.50 more than Jayden.

Since, the ratio given is 2:5:7 we can make the equation linear equation in one variable:

2x + 5x + 7x = $49

14x = $49

x = $7/2 or $3.5

now, according to the ratio given:

Jayden have 2x money i.e. Jayden got 2 x (3.5) = $7

Maggy have 5x money i.e. Maggy got 5 x (3.5) = $17.5

Ramon have 7x money i.e. Ramon got 7 x (3.5) = $24.5

Difference between Ramon and Jayden money = $(24.5 - 7) = $17.5

Hence, Ramon got $17.50 more than Jayden.
