प्रश्न

A certain sum was divided among A, B and C in the ratio 7 : 5 : 4. If B got Rs 500 more than C, find the total sum divided.

योग

उत्तर

Ratio between A, B and C = 7 : 5 : 4
Let A’s share = 7x
B’s share = 5x
and C’s share = 4x
Total sum
= 7x + 5x + 4x
= 16x
Now according to the condition,
5x – 4x = 500
⇒ x = 500
∴ Total sum = 16x
= 16 x 500
= ₹8000.
