Question

a sum of 8400 is divided among meena and bindu meena gets 1200 more than bindu find the amount each gets

Answer 1

Solution:

Consider Meena gets Rs x and Bindu gets Rs y

From 1st condition,

x+y=8400.......(1)

Meena gets 1200 rs more than Bindu.

From second condition,

y=x+1200

-x+y=1200.......(2)

Adding eqn (1)and(2)

We get,

2y=9600

y=4800

Substituting the value of y in eqn (1)

x+4800=8400

x=8400-4800

x=3600

Ans.Meena will get Rs 4800 and Bindu will get Rs 3600.
