The number that needs to be split as per the question = 2.50 The ratio in which the number needs to be split = 3:2 Let us assume the common ratio to be = x Then 3x + 2x = 2.50 5x = 2.50 x = 2.50/5 = 0.50 Then The ratio in which the number 2.50 can be divided = 3 * 0.5: 2 * 0.5 = 1.5:1 So from the above deduction, we can conclude that the number 25 can be split in the ratio 1.5:1.
