(530-50)=480 is the amount to divide in the 3:5 ratio.

\n" ); document.write( "480/8=60 per share
\n" ); document.write( "3*60=180 for the smaller share.
\n" ); document.write( "5*60=300 for the larger share.
\n" ); document.write( "proof
\n" ); document.write( "180+300=480 the amount to be divided.
