Answer:

£32 : £40

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio, 4 + 5 = 9 parts

Divide the amount by 9 to find the value of one part of the ratio

£72 ÷ 9 = £8 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, then

4 parts = 4 × £8 = £32

5 parts = 5 × £8 = £40

Then

£72 in the ratio 4 : 5 is £32 : £40
