Question

Two friends share some coins in the ratio 3:5. If the SMALLER share is 18 coins, what is the TOTAL number shared?

Answer 1

Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of coins be 'x'

Sum of ratios = 3 + 5 = 8

Smaller share = 18

$\frac{3}{8} of x = 18$

$x = \frac{18 * 8}{3}$ = 48

So, the total number of coins is 48.
