A sum of money is shared in the ratio 3:7.
If the smaller share is $450, what is the
8
larger share?
(A) $315
(B) $1050
$1500
(D)
$3150
| (C)

Respuesta :

B) = $1050.

So we are given the ratio 3:7. If we want to share $450 in the smaller share, which would be the 3, we’d need to work out what $450/3 is… so then we can multiply the answer by the 7 to work out the larger share. $450/3 = $150. So then we do $150 x 7 = $1050.
So $1050 is the larger share.

Answer:

B) $1050

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]450(7/3)=(450)(7)/3=3150/3=1050[/tex]

Hope this helps
