Answer:
Let the multiple be x
Then,
88x+10x+2x= 200
100x=200
x=200/100=2
Copper in 200g is equal to 88*2=176
Tin in 200g is equal to 10*2= 20
Zinc in 200g is equal to 2*2=4

✰✰|| Given ||✰✰
- ratio of copper in gun metal = 88
- ratio of tin in gun metal = 10
- ratio of zinc in gun metal = 2
- total weight of sample = 200kg
✰✰|| To Find ||✰✰
- weight of each metal in sample
✪|| Solution ||✪
Let, the multiple of ratio be x
Total weight of sample = 200kg
➻ 88x + 10x + 2x = 200kg
➻ 100x = 200kg
➻ x = 200kg/100
➻ x = 2kg
weight of copper = 88x
☞ weight of copper = 88 × 2kg
☞ weight of copper = 176kg
weight of Tin = 10x
☛ weight of Tin = 10 × 2kg
☛ weight of Tin = 20kg
weight of zinc = 2x
➸ weight of zinc = 2 × 2kg
➸ weight of zinc = 4kg
