Question

if the ratio of banana to orange in
la box is 5:8 and the number of
Bananas is 30, find the number
of oranges.

Answer 1

Answer:

Number of bananas = 5x

Number of oranges = 8x

5x = 30

x = 30/5

x = 6

Number of bananas = 5×6 = 30

Number of oranges = 8×6 = 48

Answer 2

Answer:

we can take 5:8

5x+8x

and 5x=30 (since, bananas are 30 and in the ratio banana is 5)

so, x=6

so 8x=8*6

=48

therefore,the no of oranges are 48
