Divide 20 pens between Sheela and Sangeeta in the ratio of 3 : 2

In this question, we have


Terms of 3: 2 are 3 and 2


Therefore,


Sum of these terms = 3 + 2 = 5


Also,


Sheela will get of total pens and Sangeeta will get  of total pens


Hence,


Number of pens with Sheela = × 20 = 12


Also,


Number of pens with Sangeeta = × 20 = 8
