Question

A certain sum of money is divided among A, B, C in the ration 2 : 3 : 4. If A's share id 200, find the share of B, C

Answer 1

Answer:

B = 300 , C = 400

Step-by-step explanation:

2:3:4 can be written as 2x , 3x , 4x

A = 2x -(1)

B = 3x-(2)

C = 4x -(3)

here ,  A = 200

2x = 200          [ applying (1) ]

x = 200/2

x = 100

So, 3x=3 x 100 = 300 = B

4X = 4 X 100 = 400 = C

Hence proved!!!!
