jayden and caden share a reward of $140 in a ratio of 2:5.What fraction of the total reward does jayden get?

2:5, total 140,

2+5=7

2/7 x 140=40
5/7 x 140=100

=100+40=140.

2/7 = x/140

Cross multiply and solve for x.

LIKE YA CUT G ;)

The answer to this question is... 40/100

2x+5x=140

7x=140
x=140/7
x=20
Joyden 2x=>2(20)=40
Joyden get $40 fraction of 2/7.

Cool pops. I need help now get lost

To find out the fraction of the total reward that Jayden gets, we need to compare the share of Jayden to the total reward.

The given ratio is 2:5, which means that Jayden's share is 2 out of a total of 2+5=7 shares.

To find the fraction, we take Jayden's share (2) and divide it by the total number of shares (7):

Jayden's fraction = Jayden's share / Total shares
= 2 / 7

Therefore, Jayden gets a fraction of 2/7 of the total reward.

this does not work
