Answer 1

Given :

Jame has six stamps in his stamp collection Roy has 12 stamps on his collection Jame adds two stamps to the collection.

To Find :

The ratio of stamps of James's and Roy's collection.

Solution :

Number of stamps in Jame's collection, n = 6 + 2 = 8.

Let, ratio of their stamp is R.

$R = \dfrac{\text{Number of stamps James have}}{\text{Number of stamps Roy have}}\\\\R = \dfrac{8}{12}\\\\R = \dfrac{2}{3}$

Therefore, the ratio of their stamps is 2 : 3 .
