Answer:
£54
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the ratio:
Bridget = 4/17
Brian = 9/17
Caroline = 4/17
____
So if Bridget and Caroline receive £48, that would mean £48 is 8/17 of the total amount. We can find 1/17 of the money by dividing £48 by 8.
48 / 8 = 6
And then multiply that by 9 to find 9/17 of the money (the amount Brian has).
6 x 9 = 54
