Answer:
Small bag = 15 kg
Medium bag = 22.5 kg
Large bag = 52.50 kg
Step-by-step explanation:
A pile of sand has a weight of 90 kg.
The sand is put into a small bag,a medium bag and a large bag in the ratio 2 : 3 : 7.
A small base has 2 of total weight of sand.
A medium bag has 3 of total weight of sand.
A large bag has 7 of total weight of sand.
Amount of sand in small bag [tex]=\dfrac{2}{12}\times 90 =15\ kg[/tex]
Amount of sand in medium bag [tex]=\dfrac{3}{12}\times 90 =22.50\ kg[/tex]
Amount of sand in large bag [tex]=\dfrac{7}{12}\times 90 =52.50\ kg[/tex]
Hence, The weight of sand in small bag is 15 kg, medium bag is 22.50 kg and large bag is 52.50 kg.
