Question

Create your own problem using this data

ratio is 2:5:6=130​

Answer 1

Using the ratio 2:5:6 to represent apples, bananas, and oranges respectively, we have calculated that in a basket containing a total of 130 fruits, there would be 20 apples, 50 bananas, and 60 oranges.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's create a word problem using the data ratio 2:5:6 which sums to 130. Imagine there are three types of fruits in a basket: apples, bananas, and oranges in this ratio. We want to find out how many of each type of fruit are there in the basket.

Step 1: Add the parts of the ratio to find the total parts.

2 + 5 + 6 = 13 parts

Step 2: Divide the total quantity by the total number of parts to find one part.

130 ÷ 13 = 10

Step 3: Multiply each part of the ratio by the value of one part.

Apples (2 parts): 2 × 10 = 20 apples

Bananas (5 parts): 5 × 10 = 50 bananas

Oranges (6 parts): 6 × 10 = 60 oranges

Now we know that in a basket of 130 fruits, there are 20 apples, 50 bananas, and 60 oranges according to the given ratio 2:5:6.
