Check understanding
- Share 40 sweets between two children in the ratio 3:5
- Solve: 'Tom gets twice as many as Sam and Sam gets three times as many as Jo. If there are 30 altogether, how many does each get?'
- Use fraction knowledge to explain why sharing in ratio 2:3 means one person gets 2/5 of the total
“If three friends share a bag of 24 sweets so that one person gets twice as many as each of the others, can your child work out how many each person receives?”
