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
\(3x+7x=32\)
\(10x=32\)
Divide both sides by 10
\(x=\frac{32}{10}\)
\(x=3.2\)
The value of x is 3.2.
First part of £32 is
\(3x=3(3.2)=9.6\)
Second part of £32 is
\(7(3.2)=22.4\)
Therefore first part of £32 is £9.6 and second part of £32 is £22.4.
