First off, add up the numbers from the ratio to see what portion of the total money each child receives.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"2%2B4%2B6%2B8%2B10=30\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now, Ann will get 2/30 of the money. Betty will get 4/30, Carol will get 6/30, Donna will get 8/30 and Elsie will get 10/30.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "For Ann,
\n" ); document.write( "(2/30)*($93,600)=$6,240\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "For Betty,
\n" ); document.write( "(4/30)*($93,600)=$12,480\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "For Carol,
\n" ); document.write( "(6/30)*($93,600)=$18,720\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "For Donna,
\n" ); document.write( "(8/30)*($93,600)=$24,960\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "For Elsie,
\n" ); document.write( "(10/30)*($93,600)=$31,200 \n" ); document.write( "
