Question

a piece of string of length 65cm is divided in the ratio 2:4:7 calculate the
length of the shortest piece​

Answer 1

Answer:

10cm

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 13 parts, 2+4+7. so, (2/13)*65 = 10, 4/13*65= 20, 7/13*65= 35. So it would be 10 cm as the shortest length. Proving our answer= 10+20+35= 65.
