Given,
A number, 35 and the ratio 3:4.
To find,
The two numbers when 35 is divided into 3:4.
Solution,
The two numbers when 35 is divided into 3:4 will be 15 and 20 respectively.
We can easily solve this problem by following the given steps.
According to the question,
We have to divide 35 into 3:4.
Now, let's take the first part to be 3x and the second part to be 4x.
So,
3x+4x = 35
7x = 35
x = 35/7 ( 7 was in the multiplication on the left-hand side. So, it is in the division on the right-hand side.)
x = 5
Now, finding the two parts by putting the values of x,
3x = 3×5 = 15
4x = 4×5 = 20
Hence, the two parts when 35 is divided in the ratio of 3:4 is 15 and 20 respectively.
