प्रश्न

The costs of the two articles are in the ratio 7 : 4. If the cost of the first article is Rs. 2,800; find the cost of the second article.

योग

उत्तर

Ratio in the cost of two articles = 7 : 4

Cost of first article = Rs. 2800

Let cost of the second article = x

7 : 4 = 2800 : x

⇒ `7/4=2800/"x"`

⇒ 7 × x = 2800 × 4

⇒ x = `(2800xx4)/7=1600`

∴ Cost of second article = Rs. 1600
