A concrete mix requires 2 parts sand and 3 parts cement how many pounds of sand are needed for 75 pounds of cement?

You already have the amount of cement you need 75lbs so that is your 3 parts cement. 25 + 25 + 25 =75. Now add the 2 parts sand 25 + 25 = 50lbs. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Find fractional parts. There is a total of 5 parts. 2/5 = .4 is the fractional part of sand and 3/5= .6 is the fractional part of cement. Then .4 x 75 = 30lb is the sand and .6 x 75 = 45lb is the cement. This gives 75lbs of concrete. If you are asking how much sand to add to 75lbs cement the top answer is correct.
