Answer:

${ \huge{ \bold{ \blue{Answer}}}}$

3x+ 2x= 20

5x= 20x= 20/5

X= 4

Hence the division will be 12pens and 8 pens

Answer 2

Answer:

sheela has 12 pens and sangeetha will have the remaining 8 pens

Step-by-step explanation:

let us take it as x

so 3:2 = 3x;2x

3x+2x=20

5x = 20

x = 20/5

x = 4

sheela will have 3x pens = 3 x 4 = 14

sangeetha will have 2x pens = 2 x 4 = 8

so sheela has 14 pens and sangeetha has 8 pens
