Answer 1

Hey there

Here ur answer

Let Sheela's points be 3x

Let Sangeeta's points be 2x

so thn,

following:

3x+2x= 20

5x      = 20

x        = 20/5

x        = 4

then,

Substuting x as 4 in Sheela's points:

Sheela points = 3x

                       = 3×4

                       = 12.

Substuting x as 4 in Sangeeta's points:

Sangeeta points = 2x

                            = 2×4

                            = 8.

So, ∴Sheela points is 12 and Sangeeta points is 8.

Hope this helps u

Answer 2

Answer:

i guessit is not points it is pens  according to me

Step-by-step explanation:

The two parts are 3 and 2. Sum of the parts is 5.

So, Sheela gets 3 parts and Sangeeta gets 2 parts out of every 5 parts.

OR

Sheela gets 3/5 of the total pens and Sangeeta gets 2/5 of the total pens

Number of pens Sheela gets  

= (3/5) * 20 = 12

Number of pens Sangeeta gets  

= (2/5) * 20 = 8

So, Sheela gets 12 pens and Sangeeta gets 8 pens.
