Answer:
$140,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Value of lottery = $1,500,000
Man's ratio = 41
Wife's ratio = 34
Total ratio = 41 + 34 = 75
Man's share = Man's ratio / Total ratio * Value of lottery
= 41/75 * $1,500,000
= 0.5466666666666 * $1,500,000
= $820,000
Wife's share = wife's ratio / total ratio * Value of lottery
= 34/75 * $1,500,000
= 0.4533333333333 * $1,500,000
= $680,000
Difference between the man's share and his wife's share
= Man's share - wife's share
= $820,000 - $680,000
= $140,000
