Answer: 10.75 currency units

Step-by-step explanation:

The amounts of money are in the ration 8:3 which means that for every 3 units of the second amount, there are 8 units of the first.

Use direct proportion to solve:

8      :      3

x      ;       4.03

Cross multiply to get:

3x = 32.24

x = 32.24 / 3

x = 10.75 currency units
