Question

Vinod and Ravi share 104 books in the ratio 5:3. How many books does Ravi get?​

Answer 1

Answer:

If Vinod and Ravi share 104 books in the ratio 5 :3 , then Ravi gets 39 books

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of books Vinod and Ravi share = 104

Ratio of number of books Vinod gets to the ratio of number of books Ravi gets = 5:3

That is , if Vinod gets 5x books , then Ravi gets 3x books.

Total number of books = Number of books Vinod gets + Number of books Ravi gets

That is 104 = 5x + 3x

104 = 8 x

x= 104/8 = 13

Number of books Ravi gets = 3x = 3*13 = 39

Therefore Ravi gets 39 books
