He need 180 kg of sand.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Bob the builder in making 480 kg of concrete mix Concrete is made by mixing cement, sand and gravel in the ratio of 1:3:4.

To find : How much sand does he need ?

Solution :

Let the ratio be 'x'.

The amount of cement, sand and gravel in concrete mixture be x, 3x, 4x respectively.

So, total mixture is 480 kg.

i.e. x+3x+4x=480

8x=480

Divide both sides by 8.

x=60

The amount of sand is 3x.

So, 3\times 60=180

Therefore, he need 180 kg of sand.
