Two people wrote a book together. They agreed to share the royalties so that the senior author received twice as much as the junior author. What is each author's share of a $2400 royalty check?

A book royalty is the amount that a publisher pays an Author in exchange for the rights to publish their book. Royalties are calculated as a percentage of book sales. For example, an author might earn 7.5% royalties on every paperback sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Junior author = $800

Senior author = $1600

Step-by-step explanation:

The check is split between the senior author and junior author in the ratio of 2:1

2:1 = $2400

Add the ratios together:

2 + 1 = 3

3 parts = $2400

Find one part of the total check by dividing both sides by 3:

1 part = $800

answer: yes, he is correct

step-by-step explanation: 10x-1=59

                                              1-1=0     59+1=60

60/10=x=6
