Question

Divide 80 in a ratio of 3:2

Answer 1

If you add the numbers in the ratio and then divide that number by what you are finding a ratio of then you will get one part. You then multiply that one part by each part of the ratio. You then simplify the ratio if it can be done.
3+2=5
80÷5=16
16×3=48
16×2=32
Ratio = 48:32
Simplified Ratio = 3:2
