Question

700 is divided between A and B in the ratio 3: 4. What is the B's share?
​

Answer 1

we need need to apply the concept of ratio and proportions here,

If a total amount has to be distributed is proportions among different individuals. Then each individual will get the amount as shown below

$amount_{individual}=\frac{proportion\_of\_individual}{sum\_of\_all\_proportions} *(total\_amount)$

∴ Share of 'B' is

$B= \frac{4}{3+4}*700\\ \\B= \frac{4}{7} *700\\ \\B= (4*100)\\B= 400$

∴ B's share is $400$

Answer 2

Answer:

Share of B will be 400.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

We have,

Ratio of A and B is = 3:4

Let A's share be $3x$

So, B's share will be $4x$

Since total amount is 700

So, $7x=700$

$x=100$

Now, putting the value of $x$

So. B's share will be = $4x = 400$

Therefore, Share of B will be 400.
