Please help me solve this:ade and adewale shared a sum of 2400.00 in the ratio 2:3. How much does adewale get
45.00
To find out how much Olu gets, we need to determine the total amount of money being shared between Bola and Olu. We know that the ratio of their shares is 2:3, which means that Bola gets 2 parts and Olu gets 3 parts.
First, we need to find the value of one part of the ratio. Since Bola gets N30.00, and that corresponds to 2 parts of the ratio, we divide N30.00 by 2:
N30.00 ÷ 2 = N15.00
So, one part of the ratio is worth N15.00.
Next, we multiply the value of one part (N15.00) by the number of parts Olu gets (3):
N15.00 × 3 = N45.00
Therefore, Olu gets N45.00.
