Priya and Bala share 15 and 9 pieces of the chocolate respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Priya and Bala share 24 pieces of chocolate in the ratio 1/3 : 1/5.

Let Priya and Bala share \frac{1}{3}x and \frac{1}{5}x pieces of the chocolate respectively.

\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{1}{5}x=24

\frac{5x+3x}{15}=24

Multiply both sides by 15.

8x=360

Divide both sides by 8.

x=45

The value of x is 45.

\frac{1}{3}(45)=15

\frac{1}{5}(45)=9

Therefore, Priya and Bala share 15 and 9 pieces of the chocolate respectively.
