Find the lengths of two segments whose sum is 45 and whose ratio is 2:3

1 answer:

8 0

Let the two segments be x and y
x+y=45...1
X/y = 2/3...2
From1, y=45-x
Sub this into 2
x/(45-x)=2/3
3x=90-2X
5x=90
x=18
y=45-18=27

8 can go into 54. 6 times

8*6=48

54-48=6

Bring down the 7

8 can go into 67 8 times

8*8 is 64

67-64 is 3 so the remainder is 3

The .375 is when you put a decimal than add 0
