Using proportions, it is found that the amount that netball will receive is of:
B. $240,000
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
Due to the ratios, the proportion of funding that is destined to netball is given by:
[tex]p = \frac{2}{5 + 3 + 2} = \frac{2}{10} = 0.2[/tex]
Hence, out of $1.200,000, the amount destined to netball is:
A = 0.2 x $1.200,000 = $240,000.
