Question

A sum of money is divided between A and B in the ratio 6: 11. If B's share is 7315, find
(1) A's share (ii) the total amount of money.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Total amount = 11.305 Rs

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of money between A and B = 6 : 11

Let share of A = 6x

Share of B = 11x

According to question- B's share is 7315

So, 11x = 7315

$x = \dfrac{7315}{11}$

x = 665

Hence, share of A = 6x

                              = 6×665

Share of A = 3,990 Rs

Share of B = 7,315 Rs

Total amount = Share of A + Share of B

                       = 7315 + 3990

Total amount = 11,305 Rs

                   

Answer 2

1. A's share = ₹ 3990
2. Total Amount = ₹ 11305
