QUESTION :-
Divide 581 into three parts such that 4 times the first may equal to 5 times the second and 7 times the third then find the three parts
GIVEN :-
- 581 is divided into three parts and each part is related as 4times the first part is equal to 5 times the second part and 7 times the third part
TO FIND :-
- The three parts
SOLUTION :-
Let the first part be 'a'
Let the second part be 'b'
Let the third part be 'c'
Then ,
- Four times the first part = 4a
- Five times the second part = 5b
- Seven times the third part = 7c ,
We are given ,
- 4a = 5b = 7c
Here The sum of these three parts is equal to 581
From eq(1) ,
From eq(2) ,
∴ The three parts are 245 , 196 and 140
VERIFICATION :-
(1) We have got ,
- a = 245
- b = 196
- c = 140
Four times first part = 245(4) = 980
Five times the second part = 196(5) = 980
Seven times the third part = 140(7) = 980
4a = 5b = 7c ✓, First condition is satisfied
(2) Sum of these three numbers must be 581
Second conditions is also satisfied
