There are an infinite number of irrational numbers between any pair of numbers you care to name. Some are "algebraic" in that they are roots of polynomials. Some are not. You can make up one simply by identifying a rule that can be used to determine the value.

The ratio of money in Terry's bank account to Faye's bank account was 3:5.

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

Terry's initial amount = £780

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Ratio of Terry's money to Faye's money = 3 : 5

Let,

x be the amount of money.

Terry's amount = 3x

Faye's amount = 5x

Now,

3x + 220 = 5x - 300

220+300 = 5x - 3x

520 = 2x

2x = 520

Dividing both sides by 2

$\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{520}{2}\\x=260$

Terry's initial amount = 3x = 3(260) = £780

Hence,

Terry's initial amount = £780
