Answer:
[tex]A:E:M = 6:4:5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Abam =N3.00 when Emeka = N2.00
Emeka = N4.00 when Madu = N5.00
Required
Determine their ratios
Represent their ratios with the first letter of their names:
From the first statement
[tex]A:E = 3:2[/tex] ---- (1)
From the second
[tex]E:M = 4:5[/tex] ----- (2)
Multiply the ratio in (1) by 2
[tex]A:E = 3 * 2: 2 * 2[/tex]
[tex]A:E = 6: 4[/tex] ---- (3)
Notice that the value of E in both cases is the same i.e E = 4
(1) and (3) can be merged to give:
[tex]A:E:M = 6:4:5[/tex]
