(b) A sum of money was to be shared among three friends Keisha, Tracey, and Kerry-Ann, in the
ratio 7:9:11 respectively. If Kerry-Ann received $3,300.00, find the sum of money that was
between the three friends.

Answer :

The sum of money that was  shared between the three friends is $8100

The ratio at which the money was shared = 7 : 9 : 11

Total ratio  = 7 + 9 + 11

Total ratio = 27

Amount received by Kerry-Ann = $3300

Let the total amount shared by the three friends be T

Amount received by Kerry-Ann = (11/27)  x  T

3300  =  11T / 27

11T  =  27(3300)

11T  =  89100

T   =  89100/11

T  =  8100

The sum of money that was  shared between the three friends is $8100
