Question

distribute rs 630 among three persons in the ratio of 2 : 3 : 4

Answer 1

Solution :

Let a, b , c are the amounts three

persons get .

Ratio of amounts = 2:3:4

a = 2x ,

b = 3x ,

c = 4x ,

2x + 3x + 4x = Rs 630 [ given ]

=> 9x = 630

=> x = 630/9

=> x = 70

Therefore ,

a = 2x = 2 × 70 = Rs 140

b = 3x = 3 × 70 = Rs 210

c = 4x = 4 × 70 = Rs 280

Answer 2

Answer:

1st share = ₹ 140

2nd share = ₹ 210

3rd share = ₹ 280

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided to us→→

Total amount to be distributed = ₹ 630

Ratio of the shares of the three persons = 2 : 3 : 4

Hence,

Let the shares be 2x, 3x and 4x respectively.

Now,

Total amount = 2x + 3x + 4x

Total amount = 9x

Therefore,

9x = ₹ 630

=> x = ₹ 630 / 9

=> x = ₹ 70

Hence,

The shares will be as follows--

1st share = 2x = 2 * 70 = ₹ 140

2nd share = 3x = 3 * 70 = ₹ 210

3rd share = 4x = 4 * 70 = ₹ 280
