Step-by-step explanation:

write the ratio(amount) in terms of x like 5x,3x,4x

now,

5x+4x+3x=240

12x=240

x=20

therefore,

first amount = 5x = 5(20) = 100g

second amount = 3x = 3(20) = 60g

third amount = 4x = 4(20) = 80g

Answer:

100:60:80

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio 5:3:4 shows us the parts we have to split it into.

to get 1 part we have to add all the parts and then divide 240 by the answer:

5 + 3 + 4 = 12

240/12 = 20

so 1 part is worth 20g

we then times 20g by the ratio parts:

20 x 5 = 100g

20 x 3 = 60g

20 x 4 = 80g

so the new ratio would be:

100:60:80

to check if this is correct, we can check if the new ratio adds to 240:

100 + 60 + 80 = 240g

hope this helps :)
