Question

Divide ₹ 3500 among A,B and C in the ratio 3:2:2

Answer 1

The amount to be divided among A, B and C is in the ratio 3 : 2 : 2

Let the constant be x

So, let the share of A be 3x, B be 2x and C be 2x

Total amount = ₹3500


According to the question,

3x + 2x + 2x = 3500

➾ 7x = 3500

By dividing both the sides by 7 we get,

➾ x = 500



∴ Share of A ➾ 3x

➾ 3 × 500

➾ ₹1500✔✔


∴ Share of B ➾ 2x

➾ 2 × 500

➾ ₹1000✔✔


∴ Share of C ➾ 2x

➾ 2 × 500

➾ ₹1000✔✔

Answer 2

here is your answer ☺☺☺☺☺☺☺


A = 3x
B = 2x
C = 2x


so.... 3x+4x+7x=3500
14x=3500

x=250

Hence A=3x=₹750

B=4x=₹1000

C=7x=₹1750
