Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum the parts of the ratio, 5 + 9 + 13 = 27 parts
Divide the amount of concrete by 27 to find the value of one part of the ratio.
324 ÷ 27 = 12 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , thus
5 parts = 5 × 12 = 60 ← cement
9 parts = 9 × 12 = 108 ← sand
13 parts = 13 × 12 = 156 ← gravel
