Question

Divide 60 seconds in the ratio 4:6

Answer 1

To divide 60 seconds in the ratio 4:6, you would divide the total seconds into 4 parts for the first ratio term and 6 parts for the second ratio term. The respective parts would be 24 seconds and 36 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

To divide 60 seconds in the ratio 4:6, we need to divide the total seconds into 4 parts for the first ratio term and 6 parts for the second ratio term.

First, calculate the total number of parts by adding the ratio terms: 4 + 6 = 10.

Next, divide the total seconds by the total number of parts: 60 seconds / 10 = 6 seconds.

Finally, multiply the obtained value by each ratio term to find the respective parts: 4 parts = 4 * 6 seconds = 24 seconds and 6 parts = 6 * 6 seconds = 36 seconds.

Answer 2

60 divided by 6+4
60 divided by 10 =6
