ratio of their ages. Their ages are 9 years, 6 years and 3 years. How many
comics will each child get?
Answers
Explanation:
✬ Comics = 9 , 6 & 3 ✬
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total number of comics he bought is 18.
Ages of his children are 9 years , 6 years and 3 years.
To Find:
How many comics each of them will get ?
Solution: Let x be the common in given ratios of children ages. Therefore
First child = 9x comics
Second child = 6x comics
Third child = 3x comics
∴ Total ratio = 9x + 6x + 3x
➙ Total ratio = 18x
Now , let's find the value of x.
⟹ Total ratio = Total comics
⟹ 18x = 18
⟹ x = 18/18
⟹ x = 1
So the number of comics each will get is
➯ First child = 9x = 9 × 1 = 9 comics
➯ Second child = 6x = 6 × 1 = 6 comics
➯ Third child = 3x = 3 × 1 = 3 comics
Hence, they will get 9 , 6 and 3 comics respectively.

years and 3 years.
To Find:
How many comics each of them will get?
Solution:
Let x be the common in given ratios of children ages. Therefore
First child I = 9comics
Second hiId = 6xcomics
• Third child = 3x comics
.: total ratio = 9x + 6x + 3x
→ Total ratio = 18x
Now, let's find the value of x.
Total ratio = Total comics
18x = 18
x = 18/18
X = 1
So the number of comics each will get is
First child = 9x = 9 × 1 = 9 comics
Second child = 6x = 6 × 1 = 6 comics
➡ Third child = 3x = 3 × 1 = 3 comics
Hence, they will get 9, 6 and 3 comics respectively.
