Question

divide 6000 into two parts such that 6% of the first part is equal to 2% of the second part

Answer 1

Answer:

Let first part = X

A.T.Q

6% of X = 2% of (6000-X)

6/100X=2/100 × (6000-X)

6/100X=120-(2/100X)

2/100X+(6/100X)=120

8/100X=120

X = 120×100/8

X = 1500

First part = 1500

Second part = 6000-1500 = 4500
