Respuesta :
the ratio in which money is shared is 2:3:4
the total money to be shared is £ 71.10
Altogether the money could be divided into (2 + 3 + 4) 9 portions
1 portion comes to £ 71.10 / 9 = £ 7.9
Paul receives 2 portions, which equals to 7.9 * 2 = 15.8
Colin receives 3 portions , this equals to 7.9 * 3 = 23.7
Therefore the difference between the 2 portions is 23.7 - 15.8 = 7.9
hence, Colin receives £7.9 over Paul

The amount that Colin will get more than Paul is $7.90.
From the information given, Paul's share will be:
= 2/9 × $71.10
= $15.80
The share of Colin will be:
= 3/9 × $71.10
= $23.70
The difference between Colin's share and Paul's share will be:
= $23.70 - $15.80
= $7.90
Therefore, the amount that Colin will get more than Paul is $7.90.
