Question

an amount is divided in ratio 2:5 if value of first part is 100₹ find total amount​

Answer 1

Answer:

The total amount is 350 rupees

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount is divided in the ratio 2:5.

Let the first part is 2x and the second part is 5x.

Given that the first part is 100.

So,

      2x = 100

         x = 100/2 = 50

By substituting the value for x we can find out the value of second part.

       5x = 5 × 50 = 250

Therefore, the total amount = 2x + 5x = 100 + 250 = 350 rupees
