Answer:
The wife gets £468 over the son
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, we shall calculate the total amount Brian made from from what he and Paul won.
The ratio is 1:4, meaning for every 2 part Brain takes, Paul takes 4
Paul’s share is thus 1/5 * 7800 = 7800/5 = £1560
Now we have another ratio for sharing the amount Brain has at home.
The total ratio here is 1+6+3 = 10
The share of the wife will be 6/10 * 1560 = 6 * 156 = 936
The son share is half of this which is 936/2 = 468
The difference between their shares is £936-£468 = £468
