Question

Divide 66 chocolates between Arun and Vikas in the ratio 7:4​

Answer 1

Answer:

42 and 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the chocolates Arun gets be 7x and for Vikas let it be 4x

7x + 4x = 66

11x = 66

x = 6

Number of chocolates Arun gets = 7x = 42 chocolates

Number of chocolates Vikas gets = 4x = 24 chocolates

Answer 2

Answer:

That means ;

Arun is 7a and Vikas is 4a [because 7:4 is the most simplest form]

7a+4a=66

11a=66

a=66/11

a=6

NOW

Chocolates Arun got=7a=7x6=42

Chocolates Vikas got=4a=4x6=24

Arun got 42 and Vikas got 24 chocolates.
