Brian and Colin win some money and share it in the ratio 5:1. Brian gets £60 more than Colin. How much did they get altogether?

Brian gets 5x and Colin gets x amount.

Brian gets 60 more than Colin, so you get:

5x - x = 60

Simplify to get:

4x = 60

Divide both sides by 4:

x = 15

Brian gets 5x = 5(15) = 75

Colin gets x = 15

75 + 15 = 90

The total amount they get is £90
