Tim and matthew divide their payment for a job in the ratii 5:3. If the payment is $168, how much does tim get?

Answer 1

Stop playing with your phone in class and learn your lessons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 2

$105.

In the simplest terms, 5:3 is dividing something into 8 parts, 5+3.

So you divide $168 by 8 = 21

Multiply 5 x 21 = $105

3 x 21 = $63

$105 + $63 = $168

Answer 3

Since the ratio is 5:3, which is a total of 8 parts, divide 168 by 8. When you get the answer to that, tim has 5 times the answer, and matthew has 3 times the answer.

Answer 4

do your own homework.

Answer 5

105. Mental arithmetic. (168/(5+3) *5)
Peace.

Answer 6

8* / 168 = 21

21 x 5 = Tim gets 105
21 x 3 = Matthew 63.

*I got 8 by doing 5 + 3
