Answer:

The amount of money shared is 360

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that A certain amount of money is shared in a ratio 2:3:9.

Let x be the ratio

So, Shares of amount = 2x,3x and 9x

We are given that the difference between the first and second shares is $40

\Rightarrow 3x-2x=40

x=40

So, Shares are :

2x=2(40)=80

3x=3(40)=120

4x=4(40)=160

So,Total amount = 80+120+160=360

Hence the amount of money shared is 360
