Question

What must be added to each term of the ratio 7: 13 to make it 2: 3?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given ratio = 7 : 13

Let x should be added to each term so

it become 2 : 3

( 7 + x ): ( 13 + x ) = 2 : 3

⇒ 3( 7 + x ) = 2( 13 + x )

⇒ 21 + 3x = 26 + 2x

⇒ 3x - 2x = 26 - 21

⇒ x = 5

∴ We should add 5 to each term of the ratio

7 : 13 so it becomes 2 : 3

Answer 2

ANSWER

SOLUTION:

GIVEN RATIO= 7:13

LET x SHOULD BE ADDED TO EACH TERM SO,

IT BECOME 2:3

(7+x) : (13+x) =2:3

⏩ 3(7+x) = 2(13+x)

⏩ 21+3x=26+2x

⏩ 3x-2x=26-21

⏩ x=5

hence,we should add 5 to each term of the ratio

7:13 so it becomes 2:13
