Answer:

2 : 3 \\ 336 : 504

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the ratio be x

So we can write 2:3 as,

2x : 3x

when we add them,

2x + 3x = 5x

There altogether 5

So, now we can divide 840 by 5

5x = 840 \\  \frac{5x}{5}  =  \frac{840}{5}  \\ x = 168

So, x = 168

And now we can find the number of shares corresponding to a ratio of 2:3

168 \times 2 =33 6

168 \times 3 =50 4

So, the final answer is,

2 : 3 \\ 336 : 504

<em>hope</em><em> </em><em>this</em><em> </em><em>helps</em><em> </em><em>you</em>

<em>Let</em><em> </em><em>me</em><em> </em><em>know</em><em> </em><em>if</em><em> </em><em>you</em><em> </em><em>have</em><em> </em><em>another</em><em> </em><em>questions</em><em>:-)</em>

Ratios be 2x and 3x

\\ \rm\longmapsto 2x+3x=840

\\ \rm\longmapsto 5x=840

\\ \rm\longmapsto x=\dfrac{840}{5}

\\ \rm\longmapsto x=168

Now

  • 2x=2(168)=336
  • 3x=3(168)=508
