Question

Divide 468 gram of rice into 3heaps in the rartio 1/6ratio 1/8 ratio 1/12

Answer 1

1/6+1/8+1/12. = 468
LCM = 24
so
9/24 = 468
1248
so 1/6 of 1248 is
208
1/8 of 1248 is
156
1/12 of 1248 is
104
so three heaps are
208,156,104

Answer 2

Ratio : 1/6 : 1/8 : 1/2 (Given)

.

Make the denominators the same:

Ratio : 4/24 : 3/24 : 12/24

.

Multiply 24 through the ratio:

Ratio : 4 : 3 : 12

.

Let x be the constant ratio:

4x + 3x + 12x = 19x

.

Find 1x:

19x = 468

x = 24.6

.

Find each ratio:

4x = 4(24.6) =98.5g

3x = 3(24.6) = 73.9g

12x 12(24.6) = 295.6g

.

Answer: The 3 heaps are 98.5g, 73.9g and 295.6g
