Answer 1

Answer:

Divide a Number into Three Parts in a Given Ratio. Let the number be p. It is to be divided into three parts in the ratio a : b : c. Therefore, x = ak = apa+b+c, y = bk = bpa+b+c, z = ck = cpa+b+c.

here is the way to do the sum

Answer 2

Answer:

let the common factor be x

thus , each one's share is 5x , 6x , 7x

A/Q,

5x+6x+7x = 180000

18x = 180000

x = 180000÷18

x = 10000

hence , the money each would get would be

5x = 5*10000

= 50000 Rs

6x = 6*10000

= 60000 Rs

7x = 7*10000

= 70000 Rs
