1. **State the problem:** Ali and Sasha share money in the ratio 1:4. Sasha's share is 60. 2. **Understand the ratio:** The ratio 1:4 means for every 1 part Ali gets, Sasha gets 4 parts. 3. **Total parts:** Total parts = 1 (Ali) + 4 (Sasha) = 5 parts. 4. **Value of one part:** Since Sasha's 4 parts equal 60, one part is calculated as: $$\text{one part} = \frac{60}{4}$$ 5. **Simplify the fraction:** $$\text{one part} = \frac{\cancel{60}}{\cancel{4}} = 15$$ 6. **Ali's share:** Ali has 1 part, so Ali gets: $$1 \times 15 = 15$$ **Final answer:** Ali gets 15.
