Question

Find the 3 number in the ratio of 2:3:5 such that the sum of the products taken two at a time is 1116.

Answer 1

Answer:

the three numbers are 72,108,180

Step-by-step explanation:

2x*3x+3x*5x+5x*2x = 1116

6x+15x+10x = 1116

31x = 1116

x = 1116/31

x = 36

2x = 2*36 = 72

3x = 3*36 = 108

5x = 5*36 = 180
