Question

Gavyn and Alex win some money and share it in the ratio 4:1. Gavyn gets £18 more than Alex. How much did they get altogether?

Answer 1

Answer:

£30

Step-by-step explanation:

Gavyn has £18 more than Alex

—› G - A = £18

—› 4u - 1u = 3u = £18

1u = £18 ÷ 3

= £6

total units = 4 + 1 = 5

5u = 5 × £6 = £30
