Answer 2

Answer:  12:16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : ratio of 3:4

To find :  divine 28 into ratio of 3:4

Assuming the two numbers 3x and 4x

Hence,

3x+4x=28

7x=28

x= 28/7

X=4

now, putting value of x in 3x

we get 3 (4) =12

putting value of x in 4x

we get 4(4) =16

Hence the ration of 3:4 comes out to be 12:16

Hence, when we divide 28 into a ratio of 3:4 we get 12:16.

Comparing two amounts of the same units and determining the ratio tells us how much of one quantity is in the other. Two categories can be used to categorise ratios. Part to whole ratio is one, while part to part ratio is the other.

Answer = 12:16
