I don't understand what you need.

But,

5 + 3 = 8

56/8 = 7

7*5 = 35
7*3 = 21

Hope this helps !

Hey there :)

The given value is 56

We need to divide in the ratio 5 : 3

We can do it this way:

5x + 3x = 56

8x = 56

[tex] \frac{8x}{8} = \frac{56}{8} [/tex]
8 and 8 cancels out

x = 7

5(7) : 3(7)
35 : 21
