Answer:

Mike 270

Molly 405

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Mike be x

Let Molly be x + 135

2/3 = x/(x + 135)                        Cross Multiply

2*(x + 135) = 3x                         Remove the brackets

2x + 270 = 3x                            Subtract 2x from both sides

2x-2x + 270 = 3x - 2x

270 = x

Mike gets 270

Molly gets 270 + 135

Molly gets 405
