Answer:
Jake will receive 90 pesos
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, the money will be shared by two people in the ratio 2:3. To find the amount of money they'll receive, first, add the values in the ratio.
= 2 + 3
⇒5
Now, divide the total amount of money by 5.
= 150 ÷ 5
⇒30
=============================
To find Jake's share, multiply 30 by 3 (Jake's part in the ratio).
= 30 × 3
⇒90
Jake will receive Php. 90.
=============================
To find Alena's amount of money to be received, multiply 30 by 2 (Alena's part in the ratio).
= 2 × 30
⇒60
Alena will receive Php. 60.
=============================
To verify the answer, simply add the amount of money each will receive. If the sum is 150, then the answer is correct.
= 60 + 90
⇒150
