\n" ); document.write( "The ratio 5:3 means jaker has 5/8 of the 5000 stickers.

\n" ); document.write( "The ratio 3:1:1 means each of jaker's friends gets 1/5 of jaker's stickers.

\n" ); document.write( "So the number of stickers each of jaker's friends receives is 1/5 of 5/8 of 5000:

\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%2F5%29%285%2F8%29%285000%29+=+%285000%2F8%29+=+625\"
\n" ); document.write( "
