Answer:

They won [tex]\£63[/tex] in total

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> Mark's money

y ----> Henry's money

we know that

[tex]x=27[/tex] ----> equation A

[tex]\frac{x}{y}=\frac{3}{4}[/tex] ----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

[tex]\frac{27}{y}=\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

solve for y

[tex]y=27(4)/3\\y=36[/tex]

we have that

[tex]x+y=27+36=\£63[/tex]
