Expert: Chanda Walker - 2/10/2009


Question
divide £54 in the ratio 3:4:2

Answer
I don't really know what this question means.  I'll give it my best guess but if it doesn't look correct to you, please ask another expert.

3x+4x+2x = 54
9x = 54
x = 6

So the best answer I know would be:

18:24:12

Sorry I'm not more helpful.
