Question

Divide 735 in the ratio 4:5:6

Answer 1

196, 245, 294

Explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio, 4 + 6 + 6 = 15 parts

Divide the total by 15 to find the value of one part of the ratio

735 ÷ 15 = 49 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus

4 parts = 4 × 49 = 196

5 parts = 5 × 49 = 245

6 parts = 6 × 49 = 294
