Answer 2

Answer:

Given:

• A Certain sum of money has been divided into two parts in the ratio 9:13, If the second part in Rs 260.

Find:

• Find the total amount.

Calculations:

• According to the question, let us 'x1' and 'x2' as the second part in rupees 260.
• Let 'x' be the common variable used in this answer.

We know that:

= x1 = 260

= x = 20

= x2 = (9 × 20)

= x = 180

So, now this is 180:260.

• Adding both the numbers in the ratio, we find the total amount.

= 260 + 180

= 440

Therefore, 440 rupees is the total amount.
