6 Luiz, Seth and Fran share £1440 in the ratio 3:5:7. Fran splits her share with her sister Ali in the ratio 4:1. a) How much does each person end up with?
b) Find the ratio of the amount that Fran ends up with to the amount that Seth ends up with.
Give your answer in its simplest form.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we don't know how much each one of them gets, we will call that unknown amount x. Luiz gets 3x of the total amount, Seth gets 5x of the total amount, and Fran gets 7x of the total amount. The total amount is 1440, so the equation to find out how much that unknown amount x is looks like this:

3x + 5x + 7x = 1440 and

15x = 1440 so

x = 96.

That means that Luiz gets 3(96) = 288,

Seth gets 5(96) = 480,

and Fran gets 7(96) = 672. But Fran shares her portion in the ratio 4:1 with her sister. That's a separate equation that looks like this:

4x + 1x = 672 and

5x = 672 so

x = 134.40

That means that Ali gets 134.40, leaving Fran with 537.60.

That answers a. Now for b, the ratio of Fran's portion (what she's left with, at least) to Seth's is the fraction

or in decimal form, 1.12

step-by-step explanation:

first you will have to convert 3/4 into a decimal

which is .75

then you will have to divide 1.5 by .75

which is 2

no you have to divide
