Answer:
$132 in ratio of 2:3:6 is $24, $36 and $72.
Step-by-step explanation:
Dividing $132 in ratio of 2:3:6
Let share of first be = [tex]2x[/tex]
Share of second will be = [tex]3x[/tex]
Share of third will be = [tex]6x[/tex]
Adding the shares
⇒ [tex]2x+3x+6x=11x[/tex]
Total value = $132
So we have,
[tex]11x=132[/tex]
Dividing both ides by 11.
[tex]\frac{11x}{11}=\frac{132}{11}[/tex]
[tex]x=12[/tex]
∴ First share = [tex]2\times 12=\$24[/tex]
∴ Second share = [tex]3\times 12=\$36[/tex]
∴ Third share = [tex]6\times 12=\$72[/tex]
