Question

A tree of height 4.8 metre is broken into three pieces in the ratio 3 ratio 4 ratio 5 find the length of each piece

Answer 1

Answer:

1.2 m , 1.6 m , 2 m is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length = 4.8 m( 480 cm)

3:4:5

let the number be x

3x + 4x + 5x = 480 cm

12x = 480 cm

x = 480 / 12

= 40 cm

The height of 1st piece = 3 * 40 = 120 cm or 1.2 m

The height of 2nd piece =4 * 40 = 160 cm or 1.6 m

The height of 3rd piece = 5 * 40 = 200 cm or 2 m
