Question

divide 1080 among a and b in the ratio of 5:7​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the ratio be = x

Now,

(Add both of the ratios)

=5x+7x=1080

=12x=1080

(Now divide 12 by 1080 and dont take x with it)

=x=1080/12

=x=90

Now,

(Multiply x with 5x and 7x)

Part to be given to a=5x

=5*90

=450

Part to be given to b=7x

=7*90

= 630
