Question

a sun of money is divided between kareb an natasga in the ratio 2:5 if natasga recieve $210 how much did karen recieve ? how much money was share in total ​

Answer 1

Solution :-

⠀

➲ Let the ratio be x. Then,

• Karen get = 2x
• Natasga get = 5x

⠀

➲ But is given in the question that Natasga receive Rs.210.

⠀

$\tt\longrightarrow{5x = 210}$

⠀

$\tt\longrightarrow{x = \dfrac{210}{5}}$

⠀

$\tt\longrightarrow{x = 42}$

⠀

➲ By putting the value of x,

⠀

$\tt\longrightarrow{Karen\: receive = 2x}$

$\tt\longrightarrow{Karen\: receive = Rs.84}$

⠀

➲ Finding the total money they received

⠀

$\tt\longrightarrow{Total\: money = 2x + 5x}$

$\tt\longrightarrow{Total\: money = 210 + 84}$

$\tt\longrightarrow{Total\: money = Rs.294}$

⠀

Hence,

• Karen receive Rs.84
• Total money = Rs.294
