Question

divide 450 in the ratio of 1:2:3

Answer 1

x+2x+3x=450

6x=450

x=75

2x=150

3x=225

x:2x:3x=75:150:225

Answer 2

Total of 1,2,3 is 6
So,
The first part will be 1/6 of 450
= 75
The second part will be 2/6 of 450
= 150
The third part will be 3/6 of 450
=1/2*450 = 225

Proof, 75+150+225 = 450

Hope it helps....
