Question

Share $112 in the ratio 10:18 PLZ HELP

Answer 1

$40 and $72, see below :)

Explanation:

One way we can do this is to add the total ratios and then divide that from 112.

10x + 18x = 28x = 112

28x = 112

x = 4

That means, for every ratio, you just have to multiply the amount by 4.

so for example, 10 is just 10 * 4 = 40

So, your answer would be you share the money into $40 and $72
