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

45.3297 rounded to the nearest tenth would be?
Alex
45.3297 rounded to the nearest tenth is 45.3
3 is in the tenths place, so you look at the number to the right of it. If that number is 5 or more, you round up. If the number is 4 or less, you round down. So you round 45.3297 down to 45.3
