Answer:
a. Z: 30,000; T: 50,000
b. Z: 37.5%; T: 62.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
a. The "ratio units" add up to 3+5 = 8, so we can find the investment amounts by multiplying the ratio by 10,000
Z : T = 3 : 5 = 30,000 : 50,000
- Zoe invested 30,000
- Toria invested 50,000
__
b. Zoe's investment amount is 3/8 of the total, or ...
3/8 × 100% = 37.5%
Toria's percentage is the rest of it:
100% -37.5% = 62.5%
Zoe invested 37.5% of the total; Toria invested 62.5% of the total.
