So this ratio is 3 to 2 to 5.
00:05
3 to 2 to 5.
00:09
So the way that i can do this as an equation is i can just apply each of these with a variable.
00:15
That means i'm going to say 3x plus 2x plus 5x is equal to, what was it, 176 500? 176 500.
00:28
So now i can combine like terms and solve for x and then take that and plug it back into each of these to find out how much each of them has.
00:37
So 3 plus 2 is 5 and 5 plus 5 is 10.
00:41
So if i add all these together, i get 10x equals 176 500.
00:47
So if i want to get x by itself, i'm going to divide by 10.
00:51
Divide by 10.
00:52
Let me get that a little neater.
00:54
Dividing by 10 so that now x is equal to 17.
00:59
650, right? because i just took a zero away.
01:02
So 17650 is how much x is.
01:05
So i can take that and plug it into these and see what each one of them is.
01:10
So if x equals 17 650, then 3x would equal 3 times 17650.
01:18
It's 3 times 17650.
01:22
I don't know if that is off the top of my head, but i can use my calculator to do that.
01:25
I'm just going to say equals...
