Question

A wire of length 96cm is cut into 3 pieces in the ratio 2:3:7 find the lenth of the three pieces​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio ⇒3:2:7

Let x be the multiple.

Then,

Ratio ⇒3x,2x,7x

Total length =24m

∴3x+2x+7x=24

12x=24

∴x=2

The length of each piece

=3x=3×2=6m

=2x=2×2=4m

=7x=7×2=14m
