225 students appeared at an examination. Among them, the ratio of the number of students who passed in the first and in the second division were 4.5. If 25 students passed in the third division and 29 students failed in the examination, find (i) the number of students who passed in the first and in the second division (ii) The ratio of the number of students who passed in the first second and in the third division.​

Sagot :

(i) the number of students who passed in the first and in the second division

         76+95=171 students

(ii) The ratio of the number of students who passed in the first second and in the third division.

RATIO  is    4:5:(25/19)       or          4:5: 1.3157894…….

225-29=196 (29students failed)

196-25=171. (Subtract 25 students from the 3rd division)

4x+5x= 171 (171 students from 1st and second division)

9x=171

         X=19

4x19=76        5x19= 95         1.31578.....x19= 25
