Question

A line segment is 56cm long id to be divided into two parts in the ratio of 2:5. Find the length of each part. ​

Answer 1

Let, the length of first and second part be 2x and 5x respectively

According to the question :

2x+5x = 56

=> 7x = 56

=> x = 8

Then, the length of first part = 2x = 2×8 = 16 cm

and the length of the second part = 5×8 = 40 cm
