16 Bananas were distributed between Ajay & Vijay in the ratio 3:5, then how many bananas did Vijay get?

Answer 1

Let, the number of bananas Ajay and Vijay got be 3x and 5x respectively.

A/Q,

$3x + 5x = 16 \\ = > 8x = 16 \\ = > x = \frac{16}{8} \\ = > x = 2$

Therefore, number of bananas Vijay got=

$5x \\ = 5 \times 2 \\ = 10$

Answer 2

Answer:

Let, the number of bananas Ajay and Vijay got be 3x and 5x respectively.

A/Q,

\begin{gathered}3x + 5x = 16 \\ = > 8x = 16 \\ = > x = \frac{16}{8} \\ = > x = 2\end{gathered}

3x+5x=16

=>8x=16

=>x=

8

16

=>x=2

Therefore, number of bananas Vijay got=

\begin{gathered}5x \\ = 5 \times 2 \\ = 10\end{gathered}

5x
