Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three parts be A, B, C. Then,

A : B = 2 : 3 and B : C = 5 : 8 =(   5 x  3)   : (  8 x  3)   = 3 : 24

                                                     5           5               5                                      

 

A : B : C = 2 : 3 : 24

                             5

= 10 : 15 : 24

B =  98 x  15

         49

= 30.
