3 + 3 + 5 = 11 (11 total parts of the ratio.)

132 ÷ 11 = 12 (one part of the ratio)

Multiply 12 by the number of parts in the ratio:

12 × 3 = 36
12 × 3 = 36
12 × 5 = 60

Therefore, the final answer is 36:36:60 kg.

Let the common multiple be x

So, according to the ratio, we will have parts as

3x
3x
5x

Here, they add up to 132

Writing equation.
132 = 3x + 3x + 5x
132 = 11x
x = 12

Now, putting the values !!

3x = 3 × 12 = 36 kg
3x = 3 × 12 = 36 kg
5x = 5 × 12 = 60 kg
