Question

Divide 120 in the ratio of 2.3​

Answer 1

Answer:

48 and 72

Step-by-step explanation:

2:3 is the ratio.

Let's assume a common multiple 'a '

therefore, 2a and 3a are the numbers

2a + 3a = 120

5a = 120

a= 120/5 = 24

Therefore the numbers are

2a = 2 x 24 = 48

3a = 3 x 24 = 72

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let the common ratio be x

2x+3×=120

5x=120

x=24

2x=48,3x=72

ANSWER is 48,72
