Question

21. Divide 500 among 3 men, 5 women and 8 boys so that every 37.5P
man, a woman gets 25p. and a boy gets 9.375p.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Ratio of the share of a man, a woman and a boy is 7:4:3

No of men, women and boys are 4, 5, 2

Thus effective ratio of men, women and boys is 7*4 : 4*5 : 3*2 = 28 : 20 : 6

so part of women = (20/54)* 4536 = 1680

so part of 1 woman = 1680/5 =336
