Question

For a ratio 2 : 3, if the antecedent is 112, then the consequent will be _________.​

Answer 1

Answer:

For a ratio 2:3,if the antecedent is 12, then the consequent will be 16.

Answer 2

Given : For a ratio 2 : 3, the antecedent is 112

To find : The consequent.

Solution :

We can simply solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process. (our goal is to calculate the consequent)

Let, the antecedent and consequent = 2x and 3x

(obtained from the ratio 2:3)

According to the data mentioned in the question,

2x = 112

x = 112/2

x = 56

So, the consequent will be :

= 3x

= 3 × x

= 3 × 56 (putting the calculated value of x)

= 168

(This will be considered as the final result.)

Hence, for a ratio 2 : 3, if the antecedent is 112, then the consequent will be 168
