    Phoebe : Andy : Polly

    6 : 2 : 1

    9 parts = £270

    1 part = £270 : 9 = £30

    Polly = 1 part = £30

    Andy = 2 parts = £30 x 2 = £60

    Phoebe = 6 parts = £30 x 6 = £180

    Answer: Polly = £30 Andy = £60 Phoebe = £180

    Answer: Polly = £30, Andy = £60, Phoebe = £180

    Explanation:

    Polly = x

    Andy = 2x

    Phoebe = 3 (2x) = 6x

    x + 2x + 6x = £270

    9x = £270

    x = £30

    Polly = x = £30

    Andy = 2x = £60

    Phoebe = 6x = £180
