Question

A profit of Rs 2,500 is to be shared among three persons in the ratio 6 : 9 : 10. How much does each person get?

Sum

Solution

Total profit = Rs 2,500

Given ratio = 6 : 9 : 10

Sum of ratio = 6 + 9 + 10 = 25

Share of 1st person = `6/25xx2500`

= 6 × 100 = Rs 600

Share of 2nd person = `9/25xx2500`

= 9 × 100 = Rs 900

Share of 3rd person = `10/25xx2500`

= 10 × 100 = Rs 1000
