Answer:

1. Add up the ratio to find the total number of parts:

3 + 2 = 5 parts

2. Divide the total amount by the number of parts:

£60 ÷ 5 = £12

Each part is worth £12

3. Multiply by the ratio to find each person’s share:

3 × £12 = £36 (Paul's share)

2 × £12 = £24 (Quinn's share)

4. Check these add up to the original amount:

£36 + £24 = £60
