Question

8. An alloy consists of 27.5 g of copper and 2.75 g of tin. Find the ratio of the weight of
tin to alloy.​

Answer 1

Answer:   1:11

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,

Given that alloy has 27.5 gm of copper and 2.75 gm of tin.

So,

sum of alloy is 27.5 + 2.75 ⇒ 30.25

Both of them have same unit(gm)

So,

We can take ratio directly from tin to ally

⇒2.75/30.25

⇒275/100 / 3025/100

⇒275/100 × 100/3025

⇒1/11

∴1:11

∴ The ratio of alloy consisting of 27.5 gm of tin to 30.25 gm of alloy is 1:11.
