A sum of Rs 4,360 was to be divided among A,B,C and D is the ratio of 3: 4:5:8, but it was divided in the ratio of 1/3:1/4:1/5:1/8 by mistake. As a result .A received rs 956 more
Explanation:
The sum = Rs 4,360
The ratio for A, B, C, and D is 3:4:5:8
So, A ratio = 3 ÷ 20
And if the ratio is changed
That means for A, B, C and D is 1 ÷3:1 ÷4:1 ÷5:1 ÷8
If we take the LCM so it would 120
So, the new ratio would be 40:30:24:15 total is 109
So A ratio = 40 ÷ 109
The share of A in the first situation would be
= Rs. 4,360 × 3 ÷ 20
= Rs. 654
And, in the second situation, it would be
= Rs. 4,360 × 40 ÷ 109
= Rs. 1,600
If we make a difference so the amount is
= Rs. 654 - Rs. 1,600
= Rs. 956 more
