Answer 1

SOLUTION :

❖ Given :-

• Carriage expenses paid = Rs. 18000

• Proportion of carriage inward and carriage outward = 4 : 5

❖ To Find :-

• Amount of carriage outward = ?

❖ Calculation :-

Suppose,

• The constant is = x

Hence,

• Amount of carriage inward = Rs. 4x

• Amount of carriage outward = Rs. 5x

⤀ According to question,

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \sf{ \large{ \: 4x + 5x = 18000 \: }} \\ \\ \sf{ \large{ \implies \: 9x = 18000 \: }} \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\ \sf{ \large{ \implies \: x = \dfrac{18000}{9} \: }} \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\ \sf{ \large{ \therefore \: x = 2000}}$

⤀ Putting the value of x we get,

$\: \: \bigstar \: \bold{Amount \: \: of \: \: carriage \: \: onward =Rs. \: 5x} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \bold{ =Rs. \:( 5 \times 2000)} \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \bold{ =Rs. \: 10000}$
