Problem:
A wood is divided into 4 pcs with a ratio of:
2:3:4:6. If the longest portion is 14 inches,
what is the total length of the wood?
====================================
Solution:
Figure A:
| 2 | 3 | 4 | 6 | = 15|----|------|--------|------------|
total length of a given:
= 2 + 3 + 4 + 6 = 15
Let X be the total length
Figure B:
|<------ 14 inches ----->||-----------------------------------------------------| = x=?
By ratio and Proportion:
Total Length (A) Total Length (B)
--------------- = -----------------
Longest Length (A) Longest Length(B)
15 / 6 = X / 14
(15)(14)
--------- = X
6
or
(15)(14) 5 (14) (5) (7)
X = ------- = ------ = ---------
6 2 1
Answer:
X = 35 inches/ Therefore the Total length is 35 inches. //
