Question

a sum of money is divided into three parts in the ratio 2:3:4 the largest part us rs 140 find the total sum of money

Need step by step explanation ​

Answer 1

Here is your answer:-

Let the first part = 2x

Let the 2nd part = 3x

Let the third part = 4x = 140

Here, we can know the value of x

x = 140/4= 35

So, now, first part is 2x

So, first part = 2× 35 =70

2nd part = 3x

So, 3×35 = 105

3rd part = 4x = 4×35 = 140(as given)

Now, total money = 70+105+140= ₹315.

Therefore,total sum of money is ₹315

Have a nice day!
