Answer:
45
40 percent (calculated percentage %) of what number equals 18? Answer: 45.
Let Kamil get x. Therefore Sean would get (x + 56).
Kamil and Sean are in the ratio: 3:5
That means: x : (x + 56) = 3 : 5
x / (x + 56) = 3/5
5*x = 3*(x + 56)
5x = 3*x + 3*56
5x = 3x + 168
5x - 3x = 168
2x = 168
x = 168 / 2
x = 84
Therefore Kamil had, x = 84, and Sean had (x + 56) = 84 + 56 = 140
Kamil had $84 and Sean had $140
