Step-by-step explanation:
total ratio is 5
first find the total amount
bob's ratio is 2/5
so 2/5 ×total amount=8 pounds
0.4 ×total amount=8 pounds
total amount=8/0.4=20 pounds
so chris receives: 20-8=12 pounds
Distribute the .25 to get .25x + 1 - 3 = 28
Then simplify to get .25x - 2 = 28
Move the two to the right to get .25x = 30
Then divide to leave x: 30 / .25 = 120
X = 120
