Given:
Ann, Ben , Cheryl share money ratio 3:7:10 .
Ben get £660 more than Ann.
To find:
The total amount they shared.
Solution:
Let Ann, Ben , Cheryl share money 3x, 7x, 10x respectively.
Ben get £660 more than Ann. So, difference of their share must be £660.
[tex]7x-3x=660[/tex]
[tex]4x=660[/tex]
[tex]x=\dfrac{660}{4}[/tex]
[tex]x=165[/tex]
Now, the total amount they shared is:
[tex]Total=3x+7x+10x[/tex]
[tex]Total=20x[/tex]
[tex]Total=20(165)[/tex]
[tex]Total=3300[/tex]
Therefore, the total amount they shared is £3300.
