Answer:
First part of £32 is £9.6 and second part of £32 is £22.4.
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to divide £32 in a ratio of 3:7.
Let the first part be 3x and second part by 7x.
The sum of ratio is
[tex]3x+7x=32[/tex]
[tex]10x=32[/tex]
Divide both sides by 10
[tex]x=\frac{32}{10}[/tex]
[tex]x=3.2[/tex]
The value of x is 3.2.
First part of £32 is
[tex]3x=3(3.2)=9.6[/tex]
Second part of £32 is
[tex]7(3.2)=22.4[/tex]
Therefore first part of £32 is £9.6 and second part of £32 is £22.4.
