Answer 2

Given:

Divide 65 In the ratio 11:2

To Find:

Find the two numbers

Solution:

The ratio is a way of comparing two quantities of the same unit which is expressed as a:b and is also equivalent to the fraction form of a/b.

We are given that number needs to be divided into the ratio of 11:2

Let the 1st number be 11x and the 2nd number be 2x,

So now according to the properties of ratio,

11x+2x=65

13x=65

x=5

So the value of the numbers are,

1st number=11x

                 =55

2nd number=2x

                   =10

Hence, the numbers are 55 and 10.
