Question

you and your friends agree to split the £248 hostel bill to the ratio of:

3:3:2

with you paying the least.
How much will you have to pay?

Answer 1

For each set of $8 each of your friends pay $3

while you pay $2.  That means you pay two-

eighths (2/8) of the total... 2/8 = 1/4.

 

Just divide the total by 4 to get the amount

you pay.
