Answer 1

$let \: a \: has \: rupee = \: 7x \\ \\ and \: b \: has \: rupee \: = 3x \\ \\ and \: c \: has \: rupee \: = 5x \\ \\ therefore \: according \: to \: question \\ \\ 7x + 3x + 5x = 10980 \\ \\ or \: \: 15x = 10980 \\ \\ or \: \: x = \frac{10980}{15} = 732 \\ \\ therefore \: \: \: a \: has \: rupee = \: 7x = 7 \times 732 = 5124\\ \\ and \: b \: has \: rupee \: = 3x = 3 \times 732 = 2196 \\ \\ and \: c \: has \: rupee \: = 5x = 5 \times 732 = 3660 \\ \\ hope \: it \: helps...$

Answer 2

A's share =5124

B's share = 2196

C's share = 3660

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that amount has to be divided in ratio  7 : 3 : 5

Let the ratio be x

A's share = 7x

B's share = 3x

C's share = 5x

Total amount = 10980

7x+3x+5x=10980

15x=10980

$x=\frac{10980}{15}$

x=732

A's share = 7x=7(732)=5124

B's share = 3x=3(732)=2196

C's share = 5x=5(732)=3660
