Answer:

$200

Step-by-step explanation:

Amanda       Beverly

     9         :       3

difference between Amanda and Beverly = 9 - 3 = 6 portions.

∴ value of 6 portions = $60

   value of 1 portion  =  $ 60 / 6

                                  = $10

Total no. of portions = 8 + 9 + 3 = 20

Total sum of money to be shared = value of 1 portion x Total no. of portions

                                                         = $10 x 20

                                                         = $200
