Let the original sum = $x.
\n" ); document.write( "Uri is to receive $4x.
\n" ); document.write( "Ana is to receive $7x.
\n" ); document.write( "Mariah is to receive $9x.
\n" ); document.write( "Anna's share is $1,295.00, so 7x = $1,295.00 Divide by 7 and....
\n" ); document.write( "x = $185.00
\n" ); document.write( "4x = $740.00
\n" ); document.write( "7x = $1,295.00
\n" ); document.write( "9x = $1,665.00
\n" ); document.write( "a) The total sum is 20x = 20($185.00) = $3,700.00
\n" ); document.write( "b) Uri's share = 4x = 4($185) = $740.00
\n" ); document.write( "c) The percentage of the total that Mariah receives is: \"%289x%2F20x%29100+=+45\"%
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
