Question

ABC scores 215 runs. In ratio AB = 2:5, C is three fourth of B gets. Find the runs of A,B and C Respectively​

Answer 1

Answer :

A = 40 RUNS

B = 100 RUNS

C = 75 RUNS

Explanation :

Given ,

• Number of runs scored by A,B and C in total are 215runs.

• Ratio of runs scored by A and B is 2:5 respectively.

=> According to the data ,

A + B + C = 215 RUNS

A : B = 2:5

Let, the runs scored by A be 2x , then runs scored by B is 5x.

• Runs scored by C = 3/4(5x)

$\implies$

$2x + 5x + \dfrac{3}{4} (5x) = 215$

$7x + \dfrac{15x}{4} = 215$

$\dfrac{28x + 15x}{4} = 215$

$\dfrac{43x}{4} = 215$

$x = \dfrac{215 \times 4}{43}$

$x = \dfrac{860}{43}$

$x \: = 20 \: runs$

Therefore, the value of x is 20runs.

• Runs scored by A is 2x = 40 runs

• Runs scored by B is 5x = 100 runs

• Runs scored by C is 15x/4 = 75 runs.

A = 40 RUNS

B = 100 RUNS

C = 75 RUNS
