    Mother has a Php 1000 bill which will be divided to her 3 children in the ratio of 2:3:5. How much is the biggest share?
    A. Php 10
    B. Php 100
    C. Php 300
    D. Php 500 << ANSWER
    SOLUTION:
    1. Add all the numbers in the ratio together
    Ratio:  2:3:5, Numbers in the ratio: 2, 3 and 5
    2 + 3 + 5 = 10 (sum)
    2. Divide the sum with the given
    Given: 1000, Sum: 10
    1000 ÷ 10 = 100 (quotient)
    3. Multiply the quotient with the given with the numbers in the ratio.
    Numbers in the ratio: 2, 3 and 5, Quotient: 100
    2 x 100 = 200
    3 x 100 = 300
    5 x 100 = 500 (biggest number/share)
    Since 500 is the biggest number, it is also the biggest share.
    Hope it helps! ^^
