    We first need to add the two parts of the ratio to find the total number of parts:

    3 + 4 = 7 parts

    We then need to divide the £56 by the total number of parts:

    56/7 = 8

    We can then work out the new ratio by multiplying both sides by 8:

    3*8:4*8

    This gives an answer of:

    £24:£32

    (You check this is correct by adding the two sides and seeing if they add up to £56)
