Abi and Ali shared £35 in the ratio 1 : 6.
Work out how much Ali received.

£30

Step-by-step explanation:

To tackle these 'sharing' ratios problems, first find the total amount parts in the ratio.

1 : 6 = 1 + 6 = 7 parts

Now divide the total amount of parts by the total amount of money shared

35 / 7 = 5

Now multiply the answer by the value that is appropriate.

In this case, they want you to work out how much Ali recieved.

Ali's value is 6

6 × 5 = £30

hope this helps :)

£30

Step-by-step explanation:

6+1=7

35/7=5

5 X 6 = 30

5 X 1 = 5

1 : 6 = 5 : 30

so Ali has 30
