    Answer: $5780

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Mrs. Jackson gave sum of money to her son and daughter in the ratio 8:9 and her daughter received $3,060. To get the total amount given to the children goes thus:

    Son = 8

    Daughter = 9

    Total = 8+9 = 17

    Let the total amount given to the children be y. Since the daughter's share is $3060.

    = 9/17 * y = 3060

    = 9y/17 = 3060

    9y = 3060 * 17

    9y = 52020

    y = 52020/9

    y = 5780

    Mrs Jackson gave out $5780
