You asked:

Share \(75\) in the ratio \(2 : 5\)

MathBot Answer:

\(\frac{150}{7} \approx 21.43, \frac{375}{7} \approx 53.57\)


Add the numbers in the ratio up to find the total number of parts in the ratio. \[2 + 5 = 7\]

Divide the number being shared by the total number of parts. \[\frac{75}{7}\]

Then multiply this number by each part of the ratio to reach the final answer. \[\frac{75}{7} \cdot 2, \frac{75}{7} \cdot 5\]\[\frac{150}{7} \approx 21.43, \frac{375}{7} \approx 53.57\]
