Question

Devide 435 km in the ratio 7:8

Answer 1

Answer:7:8

203for 7 and 232 for 8

Step-by-step explanation:

7+8=15

7/15×435=203

8/15×435=232

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer will be 203 and 232.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the actual number be 7x and 8x respectively.

Hence, total number will be,

                           ⇒   7x + 8x;

                          ⇒    15x                        (i)

Now, we have given the total distance i.e, 435km             (ii)

Hence, from (i) and (ii) we can conclude that,

                         ⇒15x = 435km;

                         ⇒ x = 435 / 15;

                         ⇒ x = 29    

Now, we get the value of x.

To get the ratio of the distance, we multiply x with the respective ratios;

Thus,           ⇒ 7 * x = 7 * 29 = 203 km

 and            ⇒ 8 * x = 8 * 29 = 232 km

Therefore, this is the ratio of 435 km into 7 : 8.

That's all.
