    Answer:

    12, 6 and 30

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Step one:

    given data

    Number of medals = 48 medals

    The given ratio is = 2:1:5

    The total ratio is = 2+1+5= 8

    Step two;

    Applying the part to all method

    for Gold we have

    2/8=x//48

    cross multiply

    8x= 48*2

    divide both sides by 8

    x= 96/8

    x= 12

    gold is 12

    for silver we have

    1/8=x//48

    cross multiply

    8x= 48*1

    divide both sides by 8

    x= 48/8

    x= 6

    silver is 6

    for bronze we have

    5/8=x/48

    cross multiply

    8x= 48*5

    divide both sides by 8

    x= 240/8

    x= 30

    Bronze  is 30
