Question

Divide $1560 among reena,raziya and leeza in the the ratio 3:4:5.​

Answer 1

Answer :-

• Reena's share = $390.
• Raziya's share = $520.
• Leeza's share = $650.

Given :-

• Amount of money to be divided among Reena, Raziya and Leeza = $1560.

• Ratio = 3 : 4 : 5.

To find :-

• The share of Reena, Raziya and Leeza.

Step-by-step explanation :-

• In this question, we have to divide $1560 among Reena, Raziya and Leeza in the ratio 3 : 4 : 5. We will solve this question by finding the sum of the ratio terms and then using it to calculate our answer.

Calculations :-

• Sum of ratio terms = 3 + 4 + 5 = 12.

• Now, out of 12, Reena got 3 parts, Raziya got 4 parts and Leeza got 5 parts. So let's find out their share.

$\sf Reena's \: share = \dfrac{3}{12} \times 1560 = 390.$

$\sf Raziya's \: share = \dfrac{4}{12} \times 1560 = 520.$

$\sf Leeza's \: share = \dfrac{5}{12} \times 1560 = 650$

-----------------------------------------------------------

• So, Reena gets Rs 390, Raziya gets Rs 520 and Leeza gets Rs 650 when $1560 is divided among them in the ratio 3 : 4 : 5.
