One way to approach this would be to count the number of parts in the ratio: It's 2 + 3 = 5. Then Ann's share is 2/5 of the total amount. Betty's is 3/5. Your job is to determine the amount of $ that they split up, and what Betty receives as her share. Let x = the amount the girls split up. so if $120 is 2/5 then 60 is 1/5 so 60*5 =300

Did I do the problem -2x+10=-2(x+5) ? If not plz explain and answerthxx
Citrus2011 [14]
So when you opened up the parenthesis on the right side of the question, you added -2 to 5 instead of multiplying. Since there is no addition sign in between -2 and the parenthesis, it should be multiplication, so -2x  + -10.

So now the answer would be 10 = -10.

Which leads me to believe that this question wasn't written correctly because 10 does not equal -10 for sure.
