Question

US$ 54000 is to be shared among Al, Bob and Chad in the ratio of 2: 3: 4. How much will Bob get?

Answer 1

Answer: If he gives Al 42, then he gives Bob 21 and Carl 84. Do those add up to 210? 42 + 21 + 84 = 147–that’s too small! Go bigger.

Step-by-step explanation:

So Since (D) is odd, shoot right to (E). If he gives Al 60, then he gives Bob 30 and Carl 120. Does that add up to 210? Yes, yes it does. 60 + 30 + 120 = 210.
