Question

Divide $ 350 between kunal and mohit in the ratio 7 : 8

Answer 1

Let the amount given to Kunal and Mohit be x.

KUNAL'S SHARE - 7x

MOHIT'S SHARE-8x respectively.

TOTAL SHARE - $350 .(7x +8x)

So,

7x + 8x = 15x

Now,

when $350 ÷ 15 =$23.3

now,

MOHIT'S SHARE - 8x where x = $23.3.

so , 8 × $23.3= $186.4

KUNAL'S SHARE-7x = 7 × $23.3 = $163.1
