let ratio be 2x, 3x, 5x
perimeter of triangle = a+b+c
50= 2x+3x +5x
50= 10x
x=50/10
x=5
therefore
2x= 10
3x=15
5x=25

perimeter =sum of sides
so
let ratio of sides be x then 2x 3x 5x
2x+3x+5x=50
10x=50
x=50/10
x=5
then sides=2x=2 (5)=10 cm
=3x=3 (5)=15 cm
=5x=5 (5)=25 cm
so
let ratio of sides be x then 2x 3x 5x
2x+3x+5x=50
10x=50
x=50/10
x=5
then sides=2x=2 (5)=10 cm
=3x=3 (5)=15 cm
=5x=5 (5)=25 cm
