A brother and sister share out their collection of 5000 stamps in the ratio 5:3. The brother then shares his stamps with two friends in the ratio 3:1:1, keeping most for himself. How many stamps do each of his friends receive?
Answers
the answer of this question is each friend will get first the ratio of 3 will get 1875 stamp and another one whose ratio is one will get 625 stamp and the last one whose ratio is also one will get 625 stamp
STEPS
total number of stamps are 5000 which are divided into 5 into 3 ratio which means the total of this ratio is a 8x and brother will get 5 x and the sister will get 3x of them so
5000×5 divided by 8 will give 3125 stamps
and 5000 into 3 divided by 8 will give 1875 stamps
sofa the division of 3125 stamp which were the stamp of his brother will divided into the ratio of 3 is to 1 is to 1
then what you have to do is
3125 into 3 divided by 5 will give 1875 stamps
3125 stamp into 1 divided by 5 will give 625 stamps
3125 stamp again divided by 1 into 5 will give 625 stamps
