Atsu and Sabu shared an amount of money in the ratio 3:7 respectively. if Sabu received 20 cedis more than Atsu, how much was shared​

Sagot :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

      Atsu  :  Sabu

         3     :     7

         x     :    x + 20

x is equal to the number of cedis

cross multiply the ratio above

3(x+20) = 7x

3x + (20×3) = 7x

3x + 60 = 7x

3x - 3x + 60 = 7x - 3x                  (put - 3x on both sides of the equation)

60 = 4x

60/4 = 4x/4                                (divide both sides by 4)

15 = x
