To divide 91 picture cards in the ratio of 5:2, you need to find out what one 'part' of the ratio is worth and then multiply it by the number of parts attributed to KC.
First, you add up the parts of the ratio:
5 (for KC) + 2 (for Alfre) = 7 parts.
Now, divide the total number of picture cards by the total number of parts to find the value of one part:
91 picture cards ÷ 7 parts = 13 picture cards per part.
Then, since KC gets 5 parts of the ratio, you'll multiply the value of one part by 5:
13 picture cards/part × 5 parts = 65 picture cards.
So, KC gets 65 picture cards.
Kc and alfre shared 91 picture cards in the ratio 5:2. How many picture cards di kc get?
