When £42 is divided in the ratio of 2:5 so it comes 12 and 30.

Given that,

  • The number is £42.
  • And, the ratio is 2:5.

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

For 2:5 ratio

[tex]= \£42 \times \frac{2}{2+5} \\\\= \£42 \times \frac{2}{7}[/tex]

= £12

Now For 5:2

[tex]= \£42 \times \frac{5}{2+5} \\\\= \£42 \times \frac{5}{7}[/tex]

=  £30

Therefore we can conclude that when £42 is divided in the ratio of 2:5 so it comes 12 and 30.
