From Ratio and Proportion​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the minimum amount to be shared be x

so,

$2x + 3x = 500 \\ 5x = 500 \\ x = \frac{500}{5} \\ x = 100$

so Ram will get= 2x=2(100)=200 rupees

And Sam will get = 3x=3(100)=300 rupees

Answer 2

Answer:

Ram will get 200,

Sam will get 300.

Step-by-step explanation:

500 can be divided into 100 × 5 or 5 100s.

So, according to question,

100 + 100 + 100 + 100 + 100 = 5,

= 2 × 100 + 3 × 100,

= 200 + 300.

So, 2 : 3 = 200 : 300
