Respuesta :
add the ratios together and divide them by 132. then times the number by the answer you get.
3+3+5=11
132÷11=12
12×3=36
12×3=36
12×5=60
so: 36:36:60
3+3+5=11
132÷11=12
12×3=36
12×3=36
12×5=60
so: 36:36:60
For some number [tex]x[/tex], the number 132 can be divided into [tex]3x[/tex], [tex]3x[/tex], and [tex]5x[/tex].
The sum of the three numbers is
[tex]3x+3x+5x=132[/tex]
Solve for [tex]x[/tex]:
[tex]3x+3x+5x=132[/tex]
[tex]\rightarrow11x=132[/tex]
[tex]\rightarrow x=12[/tex]
Plug into [tex]3x[/tex] and [tex]5x[/tex]:
[tex]3x=3*12=36[/tex]
[tex]5x=5*12=60[/tex]
So the division comes out as 36 kg, 36 kg, 60 kg.
