A partitive proportion of proportion by parts, describes
a total amount being distributed into two or more
unequal parts.
Flowering and fronteres in the ratio of 1:4:5. How many acres are used for

(Let m - the number of acres in each part.)
Evergreen plus flowering plus fruit equals total acres
2. Then find the number of acres in each unequal part.
METHOD 2
- Use separate proportions for each part-to-whole relationship.
1. Find the sum of the parts given in the ratio - 14:5 1+ 4+ 5 =?
