Answer:

£120

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of money shared =x

The ratio at which the money was shared is: Jim:Pip: Krutika=1:10:2

Total Ratio =1+10+2=13

Sum of Jim and Krutika's ratio = 1+2=3

If Jim and Krutika receive £36 in total, then:

[tex]\dfrac{3}{13}\times x =36\\ 3x=36 \times 13\\x=(36 \times 13) \div 3\\x=\£156[/tex]

The total sum of money shared is £156.

Since Pip gets 10/13 of the money:

Pip's share [tex]= \dfrac{10}{13}\times 156 =\£120[/tex]

Pip gets £120.
