5 and 7 tenths from 6.78
You asked:
Share \(6.78\) in the ratio \(5 : \frac{7}{10}\)
MathBot Answer:
\(\frac{113}{190} \approx 0.59, \frac{791}{9500} \approx 0.08\)
First, simplify the ratio: \[5 : \frac{7}{10} = 50 : 7\]
Add the numbers in the ratio up to find the total number of parts in the ratio. \[50 + 7 = 57\]
Divide the number being shared by the total number of parts. \[\frac{6.78}{57} = \frac{113}{950}\]
Then multiply this number by each part of the ratio to reach the final answer. \[\frac{113}{950} \cdot 50, \frac{113}{950} \cdot 7\]\[\frac{113}{190} \approx 0.59, \frac{791}{9500} \approx 0.08\]
