Eli,Freda and geoff where given £800 to share in the ratio of there ages
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer 180, 260 and 360

Step-by-step explanation

Eli age = 9

Freda age = 13

Geoff age = 18

We write the ages in ratio as 9 : 13 : 18

Now sum all the ages 9 + 13 + 18 = 40

The total amount to be shared is £800

Therefore Eli share = 9/40 x £800 = £180

Freda share = 13/40 x £800 = £260

Geoff share = 18/40 x £800 = £360
