if the question is like share £35 in the ratio 2:5 you have to first add up the parts so 2+5=7 then you have to divide the original amount by that number so 35 divided by 7= 5. This makes up 1 part so to find out 2 and 5 parts you have to multiply that number by 2 and 5 so 5x2=10 and 5x5=25 so the ratio is 10:25 if you want to you can simplify the answer by dividing it by the same number on each side.

How do you solve ratio questions where total is given with possible ratios?

To solve ratio questions where the total is given, first, express the ratio in terms of a common variable. For example, if the ratio is A:B and the total is T, you can write A = kx and B = ky, where k is a constant and x and y represent the parts of the ratio. Then, set up the equation ( k(x + y) = T ) and solve for k. Finally, use k to find the individual values of A and B by substituting back into the expressions for A and B.
