Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

|-3| means the absolute value of -3. The absolute value sign means the number without its negative. The dictionary says: the magnitude of a real number without regard to its sign.

So |-3|= 3 and -3= -3

Liam, Sarah and Emily shared some money in the ratio 2:3:5. Liam got £30 less than Sarah.
blondinia [14]

The number representing Liam's share is 2; for Sarah's share, it is 3. The difference of those is 1, so each 1 unit of share must be £30, the difference between the amount Sarah got and the amount Liam got.

Emily got 5 shares or £30 × 5 = £150.
