Question

Divide rs 200 in the ratio of 2:5​
Divide 8l in the ration of 1:2

Answer 1

Answer:

The money can divided into rupees 75 and rupees 125

Answer 2

Answer:

1→ 1st part≈ 57.14

2nd part≈ 142.85

2→ 1st part=27

2nd part=54

Solution:

In first case,

Let, the parts are 2x and 5x

So, sum of ratio=5x + 2x=7x

→ 7x=200

→ x=200/7

Then, 2x=2×200/7= 400/7 ≈ 57.14

And, 5x= 5×200/7≈ 142.85

In second case,

Let the parts are x and 2x

So, their sum=1x+2x=3x

→3x=81

→ x=81/3

→ x=27

Then, 1x=27

And, 2x=2×27=54

And, we are done.
