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
