the ration is 2:1 when simplified
Here we will explain how to calculate two thirds of 864.
Two thirds of 864 is simply two thirds times 864, which can be written as follows:
Two/thirds x 864
Furthermore, you can convert "two" to "2" and "thirds" to "3" and then the equation and answer is:
2/3 x 864 = 576.00
Two thirds written as a fraction is 2/3. You can also write it as a decimal by simply dividing 2 by 3 which is 0.67.<span>If you multiply 0.67 with 864 you will see that you will end up with the same answer as above. </span>
<span>You may also find it useful to know that if you multiply 0.67 with 100 you get 66.67. Which means that our answer of 576.00 is 66.67 percent of 864. </span>
That is true because you are still dividing x by three either way
Let the total earnings be = x
Jennifer and Chris split the earnings in the ratio 3:2
Jennifer earned = $48


x=80
Hence total earnings are $80
(a) Chris earning is = 
Hence, Chris earns $32
(b) Jennifer spends 30% of her earnings on a book.
So, price of the book = 
Price of book = $14.40
(c) Jennifer also buys a magazine for = $5.40
So, total money Jennifer spent on book and magazine = 14.40+5.40=19.80
Money left with Jennifer = 48-19.80= $28.20
In fractions =
or multiplying the numerator and denominator by 10, we get
=
(d) Let the original price of the shirt = x
reduction percentage on x= 40%
Price paid after reduction = 16.80
