Question
A sum of Rs. 10, 500 is divided among A, B and C in the ratio 5 : 6 : 4. Find the share of each.
Solution
Total amount = Rs. 10, 500
Ratio in A, B, and C = 5 : 6 : 4
Sum of ratio = 5 + 6 + 4 = 15
∴ A's share = `"Rs." 10500/15xx5`
= Rs. 700 × 5
= Rs. 3500
B's share = `"Rs." (10500xx6)/15`
= Rs. 700 × 6
= Rs. 4200
and C's share = `"Rs." (10500xx4)/15`
= Rs. 700 × 4
= Rs. 2800
