$2340 |
Amount that Ian received every day
= 2340 - 1350
= $990
1 u = 990
Amount that John received every day
= 2 u
= 2 x 990
= $1980
Amount that John had at first
= 2340 - 1980
= $360
Total amount that John and Ian had at first
= 1350 + 360
= $1710
John's amount : Total amount
360 : 1710
4 : 19
Answer(s): 4 : 19
