Question

5. Divide 1148 into two parts which
are in the ratio 11: 3.
How do you get the answer

Answer 1

Add the two parts of the ratio together: 11 + 3 = 14

Divide the original number by 14:

1148/14 = 82

Now multiply 82 by each part of the ratio:

82 x 11 = 902

82 x 3 = 246

Answer: 902: 246
