Julian and Dylan had some money at first. Julian received 2 times as much money as Dylan every week. At the end of 2 weeks, both of them had the same amount of money. If Dylan had $1150 at first and Julian had $2250 at the end of those 2 weeks, what is the ratio of Julian's money to the total amount of money at first?

$2250 |
Amount that Dylan received every week
= 2250 - 1150
= $1100
1 u = 1100
Amount that Julian received every week
= 2 u
= 2 x 1100
= $2200
Amount that Julian had at first
= 2250 - 2200
= $50
Total amount that Julian and Dylan had at first
= 1150 + 50
= $1200
Julian's amount : Total amount
50 : 1200
1 : 24
Answer(s): 1 : 24
