Question

An estate valued at 45000 is divided among three daughters anu,Betty and Chandra in the ratio 7:10:13 respectively calculate the amount each received

Answer 1

Ratios add to  30 (7+10+13=30)

Estate divided by total ratio gives 1 unit amount (45,000/30=1,500)

Daughters ratios times 1 unit (7*1,500=10,500

10*1,500=15,000

13*1,500=19,500)

So Anu gets 10,500

Betty gets 15,000 and

Chandra gets 19,500
