3 +7=10
32÷10=3.2
3.2×3=9.6
3.2×7=22.4
=£9.60:£22.40

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.
