Question

Divide 81 into three parts in the ratio 2 : 3 : 4.

Comments

Given ratio = 2 : 3 : 4 

Sum of ratio = 2 + 3 + 4 = 9

 

Answer 1

Given:

Number = 81 

Ratio = 2 : 3 : 4 

Hence, the sum of ratio is calculated as follows 

Sum of ratios = 2 + 3 + 4 = 9 

First divide = 2/9 ​× 81 

= 18 

Second divide = 3/9 ​× 81 

= 27 

Third divide = 4/9 ​× 81 

= 36 

Therefore, 81 can be divided into 18, 27 and 36 in the ratio 2 : 3 : 4.
