Answer:
According to the question,
[tex]12x + 8x + 5x = 75[/tex]
_____________________
[tex]12x + 8x + 5x = 75[/tex]
[tex]25x = 75[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{75}{25} [/tex]
[tex]x = 3[/tex]
Now,
[tex]12x = 36[/tex]
[tex]8x = 24[/tex]
[tex]3x = 15[/tex]
So,
75 in the ratio of 12 : 8 : 5 is
36, 24 and 15
Answer:
36 : 24 : 15
Step-by-step explanation:
sum the parts of the ratio, 12 + 8 + 5 = 25 parts
Divide the quantity by 25 to find the value of one part of the ratio
75 l ÷ 25 = 3 l , then
12 parts = 12 × 3 = 36 l
8 parts = 8 × 3 = 24 l
5 parts = 5 × 3 = 15 l
