Question

d) Jai and Meera decided to raise funds for the poor in their neighbourhood. They were
able to raise funds in the ratio of 6:4, respectively. If the person with more funds raised
23,700, find:
(i) the amount raised by the other person and
(ii) the total amount raised.​

Answer 1

Answer:

i) 15800

ii)39500

Step-by-step explanation:

J           :M

6          :4      = 10

23,700:  ?

1) 23,700 ÷ 6 = 3950

2) 3950 ÷10 = 395

3) So from 6 to get to 23,700 you had to multiply 6 by 3950. So do the same on the other side.

4) 4×3950 = 15800

To get the next answer, add 15800 and 23700 which gives you 39500

Hope this helps :)
