Answer 2

Answer:

Weight of copper is 4.8 grams and weight of gold is 0.2 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the ratio of gold and copper in a ring as 1 : 24

Also, weight of ring = 5 grams

Weight of copper $= \frac{24}{25} \times 5 = \frac{24}{5} = 4.8$ grams

Weight of gold$= \frac{1}{25} \times 5 = \frac{1}{5} = 0.2$ grams
