two boys decided to share their profits from a car wash job at a ratio of 2:3 how much will each boy receieve if their total profit is 35

Profit for first boy =  $14

Profit for second boy =  $21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Ratio of profits = 2:3

Let profit for one boy = 2x and for another boy = 3x

Since combined profit = $35

Then, 2x+3x= 35

⇒ 5x= 35

⇒ x= 7  [divide both sides by 5]

Profit for first boy = 2 (7)= $14

Profit for second boy = 3 (7)= $21
