Answer:
C- $300
Jon share - 1/8 of 600= 75
Paul share-2/8 of 600= 150
Henry share -5/8 of 600 = 375
375-75=300 Henry will get 300 more then john
Answer:
Henry received 300 more than John
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratios 1x : 2x : 5x
Given that
1x + 2x + 5x = 600
8x = 600
x = 75
John = 1x = $ 75
Paul = 2x = $ 150
Henry = 5x = $ 375
Henry received 300 ( 375 - 75) more than John
