Mrs. Jackson gave sum of money to her son and daughter in the ratio 8:9 her daughter received $3,060. How much did Mrs. Jackson give to her two children in all

$5780

Step-by-step explanation:

Mrs. Jackson gave sum of money to her son and daughter in the ratio 8:9 and her daughter received $3,060. To get the total amount given to the children goes thus:

Son = 8

Daughter= 9

Total = 8+9 = 17

Let the total amount given to the children be y. Since the daughter's share is $3060.

= 9/17 × y = 3060

= 9y/17 = 3060

9y = 3060 × 17

9y = 52020

y = 52020/9

y = 5780

Mrs Jackson gave out $5780

let m = monomial

let t = trinomial

so, m times t = t.

monomial times a trinomial = another trinomial.
