Answer:   $628

==========================================================

Work Shown:

x = Ali's share

4x = Pip's share, because it is four times bigger due to the ratio 4:1

x+4x = 5x = total amount of money = 785

5x = 785

x = 785/5

x = 157 dollars is Ali's share

4x = 4*157 = 628 dollars is Pip's share

Note that 157+628 = 785 to help confirm the answer.
