Question

Can someone help pls

Answer 1

Age of Sean = 15

Age of Ricki = 10

`Ratio \ of \ their \ age = 15 : 10 = 3 : 2`

`Sum \ of \ the \ ratio = 5`

`Let \ number\ of sweets \ be \ x`

`Number \ of \ sweets \ Sean \ got = (3)/(5) * x\\\\48 = (3)/(5) * x\\\\x = (48*5)/(3) = 80`

`Total \ number \ of \ sweets = 80\\Sean \ got \ 48\\Number \ of \ sweets \ Ricki \ got = 80 -48 = 32`

Ans : a) 3 : 2
