Divide 96 chocolates between Raju and Ravi in the ratio 5.7
Answers
As per the question we have 96 chocolates and we have to divide it in such a way that 5 parts will remain with Raju and 7 parts with Ravi.
Let value of 1 part be "x" number of chocolates
Raju have 1x x 5 = 5x chocolates
Ravi have 1x x 7 = 7x chocolates.
Equation :- 5x + 7x = 96
=> 5x + 7x = 96
=> 12x = 96
=> x = 96/12
=> x = 8
Therefore, each part have 8 chocolates.
Raju's part = 5x = 5 x 8 = 40 chocolates .
Ravi's part = 7x = 7 x 8 = 56 chocolates.
OR
Raju will get 40 chocolates and Ravi will get 56 chocolates.
Number of chocolates=96
We have to divide chocolates between Raju and Ravi in the ratio 5:7.
Chocolates to Raju = 5x
Chocolates to Ravi = 7x
5x+7x = 96
12x = 96
x = 96/12
x=8
Raju = 5x = 8 x 5 = 40
Ravi= 7x = 8 x 7 = 56
