In this item, we are asked to split the numerical value which is 54 pounds such that the ratio of the numbers will be 5:4.
To answer, let 5x be the first number and 4x be the second number. With the given scenario, the equation that would best represent the given will be,
54 = 5x + 4x
The value of x is 6 giving us the values of 5x and 4x as 30 and 24, respectively.
Hence, the split will be 30 and 24.
