Answer 1

Answer:

Let the Expensese Of Shivam, Dhrma and Harish as S, D and H respectively.

now according to question

S=1.25D

and

D=0.85H

now again

S+D+H=4660

S+ S/1.25+ D/0.85=4660

1.35S/1.25+S/1.25*0.85=4660

NOW By solving the above equation

we get

S=2305.58

Hence Expenses of Shivam is Rs 2305.58

Answer 2

Answer:

S+D+H=4660

125/100 × D + D+100/85 ×D = 4660

D(5/4+1+20/17)=4660

D=₹1360

SO, expense of shipment = 125/100 ×1360 = ₹1700
