You have to ways you can use in order to get your answer!
⓵ Let’s just get one thing clear first, a quarter is the same thing as 1/4! Once you know and understand that, the rest is super easy!
⓶ Now, the first and faster way to solve this is to devide 100,000$ by four because john owns 1/4 of it.
100,000$ ÷ 4 = 25,000$
⓷ If you don’t understand why you are dividing 100,000$ by four, here is the long version of how to solve this problem by using the cross product method :
1/4 = ×/100,000 ?
→ (100,000 • 1) ÷ 4 = ×
→ 100,000 ÷ 4 = 25,000 = ×
There you go, this is why you devide 100,000& by four!
So your final answer would be :
The value of Johns share of the business is 25,000$.
I really hope this helped, if there’s anything just let me know! ☻
