i got 2236.3 for A using the formula you gave me. I am a little bit confused somewhere. Is there any chance you could do part A and show me what you mean.

So when i get the solution, should the square root sign still be there ?

2+8=10 6705 / 10=670.5 670.5 is the amount of each unit in the ratio, If i multiply 670.5 by 2 i get 1341 and 670.5 multiply by 8 i get 5364. Thats all good but my only problem lies with the square root sign if you know what i mean.

Adding 2 and 8 together and then divide the total amount by the amount i got after i added. That would give me the ratio in each unit.

SO here is the problem I am wondering how to make J the subject ? I have tried making J/2 and 4a/3 into a single fraction but so far nothing.I am doing something wrong somewhere. Any suggestions ?

Basically it has to do with ratios. I am asking how would you divide £6705 in the ratio 2:8. But both the 2 and 8 have a square root sign each, but i cannot put the sign because my keyboard hasn't got a key with a sign on it. It doesn't really make sense to me and that's why i am asking...

Any ideas ?? Homework Statement divide 6705 in the (ratio square r00t sign-2 : square root sign-8). The Attempt at a Solution I don't know where to begin.
