Answer:niamh gets 15 and jack gets 35

Step-by-step explanation:

think of the raito 3:7 as 3x:7x. then we can do: 3x + 7x = 50, which means 10x = 50. then we can find x by dividing 50 by 10, so x is 5. then we can find 3x, whihc is 3x5 = 15. then find 7x, so 7x5 = 35. so niamh gets 15 and jack gets 35
