Question

A Gun metal contains copper : Tin : Zinc in the ratio of 88 : 10 : 2. Find weight of each in a sample of 200 kg of gun metal.​

Answer 1

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
