Part : Part Ratio
If three people (Amy, Bob and Cara) divide up £5400 in the ratio 2 : 3 : 4, how much money does each of them get?
Find number of parts
- If three people (Amy, Bob and Cara) divide up £5400 in the ratio 2 : 3 : 4 then there are 9 parts in total.
- 2 + 3 + 4 = 9
Find value of each part and multiply
- Each part is worth £5400 ÷ 9 = £600:
- Amy gets 2 × £600 = £1200
- Bob gets 3 × £600 = £1800
- Cara gets 4 × £600 = £2400
Checking
- Check the result by adding these quantities and checking it is the same as the original.
