Question

Divide 72 in the ratio 3:4:5

Answer 1

Answer:

18 : 24 : 30

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio , 3 + 4 + 5 = 12 parts

divide 72 by 12 to find the value of one part of the ratio

72 ÷ 12 = 6 , then

3 parts = 3 × 6 = 18

4 parts = 4 × 6 = 24

5 parts = 5 × 6 = 30

Then

72 in the ratio 3 : 4 : 5 = 18 : 24 : 30
