Question

divide 1 day in the ratio 1:2

Answer 1

Answer:

24 hours divide by 2 I guess it's 12

Answer 2

Answer:

First part = 8 hours = $\frac{1}{3}$ of a day

Second part = 16 hours = $\frac{2}{3}$ of a day

Step-by-step explanation:

To divide 1 day = 24 hours in the ratio 1:2

We know that, a strength N divided in the ratio a:b,

the first part $= N . \frac{a}{a + b}$   and the second part $= N . \frac{b}{a + b}$

∴ 24 hours in the ration 1:2  first part $=24 . \frac{1}{1 + 2}$ = 8 hours = $\frac{1}{3}$ of a day

And the second part $=24 . \frac{2}{1 + 2}$ = 16 hours = $\frac{2}{3}$ of a day
