Answer:
9,000 euros.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the total is x euros the amount that Bella and Martha got is
x - 1/2 x - 1/3 x and this = 2*750 = 1500 euros.
x - 3/ 6 x - 2/6 x = 1500
x - 5/6 x = 1500
1.6 x = 1500
x = 1500 * 6 = 9,000 euros.
Answer:
€9000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume the total is x
1/2 of x was given to Paul
1/3 of x was given to Jade
While Martha and Bella took the rest equally.
Paul and Jade took
1/2(x)+1/3(x)
x/2+x/3
(3x+2x)/6
5x/6
The remaining to be shared by Martha and Bella
x-5x/6
(6x-5x)/6
x/6
x/6 was shared equally by Martha and Bella.
x/6 ÷ 2
Concert the division sign to multiplication
x/6 times 1/2
x/12
Martha got €750
x/12=750
x=750X12
x=9000
The total money is €9000
Paul took 1/2 = €4,500
Jade took 1/3 = €3000
Martha and Bella shared €1500 equally, each taking €750
