Answer
Find out the how much did they win in total .
To prove
As given
Peter and angad win some money and share it in the ratio 4:1 .
Peter gets £28 .
Let us assume that x be the scalar multiple of the Peter and angad wins money.
Than
Peters money = 4x
Angad money = x
Than the equation
4x = 28
[tex]x = \frac{28}{4}[/tex]
x = 7
Thus
Angad money = x
= £7
The total money peter and angad wins = Peters wins + angad win
= £28 + £7
= £35
Therefore the total cost of the peter and angad wins be £35.
Answer:
£35
Step-by-step explanation:
the ratio
4:1
between Peter and Angad
means Peter wins 4 times more than angad (if Angad wins £1 , Peter wins £4)
we can represent this as follows:
Peter Angad Total
£4 ⇒ £1 ⇒ £5
Since we knoe the information about Peter and we need the total, we only take the first and third column:
Peter Total
£4 ⇒ £5
if we know that Peter has £28 and we represent the total by x:
Peter Total
£4 ⇒ £5
£28 ⇒ x
we can solve this by rule of three: multiply cross quantities (5 and 28)and divide by 4:
x = 5*28/4
x = 140/4
x = 35
They win £35 in total
