Question

an sum of rs 6000 is divided among AB and C in the ratio of 4:3:5 .what is the difference between the amount B and C

Answer 1

Let the ratio be 4x , 3x , 5x

Given, Total sum = 6000

=> 4x + 3x + 5x = 6000

=> 12x = 6000

=> x = 6000 / 12

=> x = 500

Difference between amount of B and C

=> 5x - 3x

=> x( 5 - 3 )

=> ( 500 ) ( 2 )

=> Rs 1000

Answer 2

A ×B×C =6000 so ,
4x × 3x × 5x = 6000 ,
60x = 6000
so, x = 6000 ÷ 60
x= 600 so ,
4x = 600× 4 = 2400 ,
3x=600×3= 1800,
5x=600×5= 3000.
3000-1800 = 1200 is the answer
