Question

Divide 3740 in three parts in such a way that half of the first part one third of the second part and One-sixth of the third part are equal.

​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3740 is to be divided in 3 parts

so ACC to question

1/2 of 1st part 1/3 of second part and 1/6 of the third part are equal

so (1/2 = 1/3 = 1/6)= k

2k + 3k + 6k = 3740

11k = 3740

k = 340

the 3 parts are

1st part = 2k = 2*340= 680

2nd part = 3k = 3*340 = 1020

3rd part = 6k = 6*340 = 2040
