Mark and Tony share a sum of money in the ratio 3:5. What fraction of the money did Tony ratio receive?

1 answer:

4 0

Answer:

Part A is 3/8 of the whole
Part B is 5/8 of the whole

Solution:
Assuming there are no other parts,
the Whole = A + B is the denominator:
Whole = 3 + 5 = 8

Part A = 3 and Part B = 5 are numerators for each fraction.

The fractions are then:
3/8 and 5/8

Meaning:
Part A is 3/8 of the whole
Part B is 5/8 of the whole

Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b [m is the slope, b is the y-intercept or the y value when x = 0 ---> (0, y) or the point where the line crosses through the y-axis]

y = 25x + 125

"y" would represent the total amount of $ she has saved.

The y-intercept would be 125 or (0, 125), this means that she already/initially had $125 in her savings account, before she started depositing $25 per week
