Question

An amount of money is to be divided amongx,y,z in the ratio 4:9:16 if z get 300% more than x.What is y share in it

Answer 1

Answer:

9/29 of total money

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total money = m

x:y:z = 4:9:16

4+9+16 = 29

z share = 16m/29

x share = 4m/29

z share = 300% more than x share so

z share = x share + (300/100)x share = 4* x share

4 * (4m/29) = 16m/29    ( already concluded so 300% more information is additional and of no use)

y share = 9m/29
