Ahmad and Liam had some money at first. Ahmad received 2 times as much money as Liam every day. At the end of 2 days, both of them had the same amount of money. If Liam had $1350 at first and Ahmad had $2250 at the end of those 2 days, what is the ratio of Ahmad's money to the total amount of money at first?

$2250 |
Amount that Liam received every day
= 2250 - 1350
= $900
1 u = 900
Amount that Ahmad received every day
= 2 u
= 2 x 900
= $1800
Amount that Ahmad had at first
= 2250 - 1800
= $450
Total amount that Ahmad and Liam had at first
= 1350 + 450
= $1800
Ahmad's amount : Total amount
450 : 1800
1 : 4
Answer(s): 1 : 4
