Question

The sum of three number is98. The ratio of first to second is 2:3 and the ratio of second to third is 5:8 find the second the second number

Answer 1

Answer:

A+B+C = 98

A:B = 2:3

B:C = 5:8

Since each ratios take into account B, write A:B:C together quantitative relation around B’s least common multiple of fifteen.

A:B => 10:15

B:C => 15:24

A:B:C = 10:15:24

10+15+24 = forty nine “parts”, however we all know

A+B+C = ninety eight therefore double every worth.

∴ A:B:C is really 20:30:48

B is 30.

second number  is 30
