Question

₹700 is divided between two friends samyuktha and anushkriti such that samyuktha get ₹100 more than one-third of what anushkriti gets . find the share of each of them

Answer 1

Let the amount anushkriti will get be x
Then samyukta will get (x/3) +100
Here x+(x/3)+100=700
X+(x/3)=600. .......subtracting 100 from both sides
(3x +x)/3=600. .......taking LCM on LHS
(4x)/3=600
4x=1800
X=450 .......multiplying both sides by (1/4)
Hence anushkriti gets ₹450
and
Samyukta gets
(x/3)+100
=450/3 +100
150 +100=₹250

Thus anushkriti gets ₹450 and samyukta gets ₹250

Hope it helps
