The ratio of Isabella’s money to Shane’s money is 3:11
Isabella has $33.
We can make a proportion to solve for how much money Shane has.
A proportion is two ratios that are set equal to each other.
Let’s call Shane’s money ‘S’
We get this proportion: 3/11 = 33/x
If we cross multiply we get:
(33) * (11) = (3) * (x)
Simplifying it, we get:
363 = (3) * (x)
Divide both sides by 3, we get:
x = 121
However, the question asks how much money they have together.
Isabella + Shane = Total
33 + 121 = $154
They have $154 together.
