Answer:
$338
Step-by-step explanation:
Total sum of money→ 8 units
Natasha→ 5 units
Tricia→ 3 units
From this point on, I will use 'u' as an abbreviation for 'units'.
Since Tricia's share was $126.75,
3u= $126.75
Find the value represented by 1 unit:
1u= $126.75 ÷3
1u= $42.25
Find the total sum of money shared, which is 8 units:
8u= $42.25 ×8
8u= $338
Thus, the total sum of money shared is $338.
