Mary, Bob and Dylan contributed money to the Renaissance fund in the ratio of 3:5:8. If they contributed $464, how much did each person contribute to the fund?

Mary = 87

              Bob   = 145

              Dylan = 232

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the value of one part, then multiply it times the number of parts in each ratio.

Step 1: Add the ratios to find the total parts.

3:5:8 = 3 + 5 + 8 = 16

Step 2: Divide the total by the number of parts.

464/16 = 29 (value of one part)

Step 3: Multiply the value of one part times the number of parts in each ratio.

29 * 3 = 87

29 * 5 = 145

29 * 8 = 232

from the figure we get,

the x axis shows   the months and,

the y-axis shows the number of satisfied customer.

each line or each cell in upward direction (y-axis) shows 500.

the appropriate scale for the y - axis is: -

a = 2000 customers

b = 4000 customers

c = 6000 customers

d = 8000 customers

e = 10000 customers

f = 12000 customers

g = 14000 customers
