Ratios are like fractions in the way that you can simplify them if they have common factors.
we can simplify this ratio to 
1:3
that means that the bigger part got 3 times the amount of the smaller part. The problem says that Evan got the smaller amount, so if we multiply the smaller amount by 3 we should and will get the bigger amount. It says that $420 is the smaller part.
420*3=1260
so the bigger amount of money is $1260
So, because Ricky got the bigger part of Mr. George's money, he must have received
$1260<span />

Esther has a farm.
Gnesinka [82]

Here, we are required bro determine how many worker Esther needs to employ to pick the same 600kg of onions in 3 hours as compared to 4 hours from last year.

This year, she needs to employ 32 workers to pick a total of 600kg of onions in 3 hours.

According to the data given, the total quantity of onions to be picked still remains 600 kg as from last year, only that she needs it done in 3 hours now.

Therefore,

  • Since 24 workers finished the work in 4 hours,
  • This means that 96 workers are needed to finish the work in 1 hour( from 24×4 = 96).

Therefore, since the work needs to be done in 3 hours this year, This means that it can be shared between X no. of workers.

  • Where X = 96/3= 32

Therefore, this year she needs to employ 32 workers to pick a total of 600kg of onions in 3 hours.
