Answer:

$175

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to specify if harriet got the 7 portion or the 5 portion. I'll answer as if she got the 7 portion.

They split it into 12 portions because the ratio is 7:5 and 7+5=12. So do $300/12=25

Assuming Maya got the 5 portion, do $25 x 5 = $125, so Maya got $125.

Assuming Harriet got the 7 portion, do $25 x 7 = $175, so Harriet got $175.
