Answer:

£5000

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Divide the price by Ivy's ratio

1500 ÷ 3 = 500

→ Multiply 500 by each ratio and add the total

( 2 × 500 ) + ( 3 × 500 ) + ( 5 × 500 ) = 5000

Answer:

5000

Step-by-step explanation:

Helen = 2

Ivy = 3

Jane = 5

Total ratio is 10

Ivy got 1500 so:

3/10 × ? = 1500

If we solve this above equation the answer is 5000

let's prove:

Ivy 3/10 × 5000 = 1500

Hence, total is 5000
