Answer 2

Given - Amount

Find - Share of Kesav and David

Solution - Let the share of Kesav and David be 5x and 4x.

As per the question -

5x + 4x = 72,000

Performing addition to find the value of x

9x = 72000

x = $\frac{72000}{9}$

Performing division to find the value of x

x = 8,000

Share of Kesav = 5x

Share of Kesav = 5*8000

Share of Kesav = Rupees 40,000

Share of David = 4x

Share of David = 4*8000

Share of David = Rupees 32,000

Hence, the amount will be divided between Kesav and David as Rupees 40,000 and 32,000.
