Two bags of cement and three bags of sand weigh 68 lbs. three bags of sand weigh 60 lbs. all bags of cement weigh the same and all bags of sand weigh the same. what is the ratio of the weight of a bag of cement to the bag of sand

4:20

Step-by-step explanation:

60 lbs can be divided into three groups, in this case the bags of sand, so 60 divided by 3 is 20.

Now you have the 8 lbs left. It gets divided into two groups/bags so you would do 8 divided by 2 is 4.

Then for your ratio it is cement to sand which is 4:20. You can write the ratio however way you want or what is required by the question.(fraction bar, ‘to’, or colon ‘:’ )

Hope this helps!
