Question

10. Divide 3720 among x, y, and a in the ratio 5:4:9​

Answer 1

Answer:

MONEY THAT x WILL GET  = 1035

MONEY THAT y WILL GET  = 828

MONEY THAT a WILL GET  =  1863

Step-by-step explanation:

PARAMETERS GIVEN,

AMOUNT TO BE DIVIDED = 3720

RATIO BETWEEN x,y,a = 5:4:9

SO,

LET THE COMMON RATIO BE x

SO,

MONEY FOR x = 5x

MONEY FOR y = 4x

MONEY FOR a = 9x

SO,

A.T.Q.,

5x+4x+9x = 3720

18x = 3720

x = 3720/18

x = 206.6666(approx 207)

SO,

MONEY THAT x WILL GET = 207*5 = 1035

MONEY THAT y WILL GET = 207*4 = 828

MONEY THAT a WILL GET = 207*9 = 1863

I HOPE YOU UNDERSTOOD THE QUESTION!!!
