Using proportions, it is found that each of the 6 people got $0.5.

Proportions:

  • This question is solved by proportions, using a rule of three.
  • $3.00 is shared between 6 people, which are Larry, Curly, Moe, Alvin, Simon and Theodore. How much did each people(1 person) get?

The rule of three is:

$3.00 - 6 people

$x - 1 person

Applying cross multiplication:

[tex]x = \frac{3}{6}[/tex]

[tex]x = 0.5[/tex]

Each of the 6 people got $0.5.
