Question

Divide 30 pencil between Manu and Kanta in the ration 2:3​

Answer 1

Answer:

Manu will get 12 and Kanta will get 18 pencils.

Step-by-step explanation:

I think, Manu will get 2x and Kanta will get 3x

Here, 2x + 3x = 5x = 30

x = 6 and 2x = 12 and 3x = 18

Answer 2

Here we have to divide 30 pencils in the ratio 2:3 between Manu and Kanta

Let us consider Manu gets 2x pencils and Kanta gets 3x pencils

So, 2x + 3x = 30

              5x = 30

                 x = 30 / 5

                 x = 6

So, Manu will get pencils = 2x

                                                = 2 × 6

                                                = 12

Kanta will get pencils = 3x

                                    = 3 × 6

                                     = 18

Hence, the Manu and Kanta got 12 and 18 pencils respectively
