Answer 1

Answer:

Hey mate!!!!!!

Method 1:- Ratios and Proportion method.

First find the sum of ratios = 1+3 = 4

Now given there are 12 sweets so

A's share = 1 ratio

= Formula

\frac{ratio}{sum \: of \: ratio} \times total \: number

sumofratio

ratio

×totalnumber

=

\frac{1}{4} \times 12 = 3

×12=3

A will get 3 sweets

B's share =

\frac{3}{4} \times 12 = 9

×12=9

B will get 9 sweets.

Method 2:-. Algebra

Let the sweets get be x : 3x

so given total sweets = 12

so x + 3x = 12

4x = 12

x = 12/4

x = 3

A has got 3

B share = 3x = 3 × 3 = 9

A got 3 and B got 9

Hope it helps dear friend ☺️✌️✌️✌️
