₹700

​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let sons amount be 4x

let daughter amount be 3x

A.T.Q

4x+3x=1400

7x=1400

x=1400/700

x=200

son's amount=4×200=800

daughter's amount=3×200=600

Hence, solved.

Answer 2

The son gets ₹800 (Option 2)

Given

Total amount divided by the Father = ₹1400

Ratio in which the father divided the money between his son and daughter = 4:3

To Find

The amount received by the son

Solution

Since the father divides the money between his son and daughter in the ratio of 4:3, the total number of shares is equal to the sum of the ratios. That is 4+3 = 7.

So amount per share = Total amount ÷ Total number of shares = $\frac{1400}{7}$

That is, amount per share = ₹200

Total shares received by the son = 4

Hence the total amount received by the son = 4 × 200 = ₹800

Hence, the son gets ₹800
