a farmer had 120 hectares of land he shared the land among his three children Ben Caleb and nickel in the ratio 2:3:5 respectively how many hectares did Caleb get​



Answer :

Step-by-step explanation:

he split it therefore first into 2+3+5 = 10 equally large units.

so, each of these units is then 120/10 = 12 hectares.

Ben then got 2 of these units : 2×12 = 24 hectares.

Caleb got 3 of these units : 3×12 = 36 hectares.

and the 3rd brother got 5 of these units : 5×12 = 60 hectares.

Caleb got 36 hectares.
