Question

₹300 is divided between A and B in such a way that A gets half of B. Find: i) ratio between the share of A and B ii) the share of A and the share of B

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A get Rs 'x' share

B gets Rs '2x' share

i) Ratio = x / 2x

• Ratio = 1 / 2
• Ratio = 1 : 2

ii) x + 2x = 300

3x = 300

x = 300 / 3

x = 100

Share of A = x = Rs 100

Share of B = 2x = Rs 200
