Answer:
£90
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the ratio of 5:1, total denominator is 5+1=6. Therefore, Natasha's proportion is 5/6 while Richard gets 1/6.
The differences in proportion is 5/6-1/6=4/6
This difference of 4/6, simplified as 2/3 is equivalent to £60
Therefore, 3/3=1 is given by cross multiplication
Total proportion is £60*3/2=£90
In this case, Natasha gets 5/6 of 90=5/6*90=75 while Richard gets 1/6 of 90=1/6*90=15
The difference is 75-15=60
In concljsion, they altogether get £90
