Question

decrease 850 in the ratio 17:6 and then decrease the resulting number in the ratio 4:3​

Answer 1

Answer:

225.

Step-by-step explanation:

Decreasing 850 in the ratio 17:6, the new number is $850 . \frac{6}{17}$ $= (50) . (6) = 300$

Now Decreasing 30 in the ratio 4:3, the new number is $300 . \frac{3}{4} = (75).(3) = 225$
