Sagot :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Fiifi has 140 cedis.

The ratio of Jojo’s share to Fiifi’s share is 3:4.

We can set up the following proportion:

Jojo: Fifi = 3: 4

[tex]\frac{Jojo}{Fifi}[/tex]  = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Solving for Jojo’s share:

It is given that FIFI has 140 credits

[tex]\frac{Jojo}{140}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Cross-multiplying:

Jojo = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] * 140

Jojo = 105

Now let’s find the total amount shared:

Total amount shared = 105 + 140 = 245
