Answer 1

Answer:

46:69:23

Step-by-step explanation:

2:3:1 can be written as 2x, 3x & 1x

so, the number to be divided = 138

then the equation is

=} 2x + 3x + 1x = 138

=} 6x = 138

=} x = 138/6

=} x = 23

Now value substitution,

• 2x = 2(23) =} 46
• 3x = 3(23) =} 69
• 1x = 1(23) =} 23

therefore the answer is 46:69:23
