Question

A certain amount is divided among three persons A,B,C in the ratio of 6:7:10.Find the amount if rs.450 is added to the share of 'c' is equal to half of the whole amount.

Answer 1

Answer:

6900

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the common multiple be x

so,the total amt divided to a,b,c will be 6x+7x+10x=23x

according to the 2nd condn-

C has 10x+ 450

this is half of the whole amt

Therefore, 10x+450=23x/2

2(10x + 450) = 23x

20x + 900 = 23x

900= 23x-20x

900 = 3x

900/3= x

300= x

6x=6×300=1800

7x=7×300=2100

10x=10×300=3000

Total amount is 1800+2100+3000=6900
