Learn it For a ratio a : b : c, find the value of ONE part (total ÷ (a + b + c)), then multiply by each number in the ratio.

Example: Share $\$180$ in the ratio 2 : 3 : 4.

  1. Parts: $2 + 3 + 4 = 9$; one part $= 180 \div 9 = 20$.
  2. Shares: $2 \times 20 = 40$, $3 \times 20 = 60$, $4 \times 20 = 80$.
  3. Check: $40 + 60 + 80 = 180$ ✓.
