Increase 70kg in a ratio of 3/4:1/2
To increase 70kg in a ratio of 3/4:1/2, we need to find the total parts of the ratio:
3/4 + 1/2 = 6/8 + 4/8 = 10/8
This means we need to divide 70kg into 10 equal parts:
70kg ÷ 10 = 7kg
Now we can multiply each part of the ratio by 7kg to find the corresponding increases:
3/4 ratio: (3/4) x 7kg = 5.25kg increase
1/2 ratio: (1/2) x 7kg = 3.5kg increase
Therefore, the increase in the ratio of 3/4:1/2 is 5.25kg and 3.5kg respectively, for a total increase of 8.75kg.
To find the new total weight:
70kg + 8.75kg = 78.75kg
To increase 70kg in a ratio of 3/4:1/2, we need to understand the ratio and apply it to the weight.
The given ratio is 3/4 to 1/2.
Step 1: Find the equivalent ratio
To find the equivalent ratio, we need to make sure the denominators are the same.
To do this, we multiply the denominator 4 with 2, and the denominator 2 with 4. This gives us the equivalent ratio of 6/8:2/4.
Step 2: Add the ratios
We add the two ratios together to get a final ratio.
6/8 + 2/4 = 12/8 + 2/4 = 14/8
Step 3: Multiply the final ratio by the weight
To increase the weight of 70kg, we multiply it by the final ratio.
70kg * 14/8 = 980/8 = 122.5kg
Therefore, increasing 70kg in a ratio of 3/4:1/2 results in a weight of 122.5kg.
