Answer:

8 : 24 : 24

Explanation:

I assume you mean to break up 56 into a ratio of 1 : 3 : 3.

A ratio of 1 : 3 : 3 is also a ratio of 1x : 3x : 3x.

The total is 1x + 3x + 3x = 7x

The total is also 56.

7x = 56

x = 8

Using x = 8, then 1x : 3x : 3x = 1(8) : 3(8) : 3(8) = 8 : 24 : 24

Answer: 8 : 24 : 24
