Answer 2

Answer:

The ratio of £64 in 5 : 11 form is  20 : 44

Step by step explanation:

Hey Mate,

We need to divide £64 into the ratio of 5 : 11.

Suppose 5X + 11X =64

So, 16X = 64

X = 4

Then,

=> 5X = 5 × 4 = 20   ;    11X = 11 × 4 = 44

#(Recheck : 5X + 11X =64 => 20 + 44 = 64)

So, The ratio of £64 in 5 : 11 form is  20 : 44
