1) Divide £10 into the ratio 2 : 3

£4 and £6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the common multiplier of the given ratios be x.

So, 2x and 3x are the two parts of £10.

Hence,

2x + 3x = 10

5x = 10

x = 10/5

x = 2

2x = 2*2 = 4

3x = 3*2 = 6

Hence, the two parts of £10 are £4 and £6.

okay, if you need all you need to do is ask, and i'll do my best to assist you.

step-by-step explanation:

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=
