Answer:

24 and 30

Explanation:

The question asks us to divide the number 54 in the ratio 4:5.

This means that we have to first split 54 into (4 + 5 = ) 9 equal parts:

54 ÷ 9 = 6.

Therefore, if 54 were divided into 9 parts, each part would have a value of 6.

Now, if we took four of those parts and put them together, we would get:

4 × 6 = 24,

and similarly, if we put five of those parts together, we would get:

5 × 6 = 30.

Therefore, 54 divided in the ratio 4:5 is 24 and 30, respectively.
