Question

Divide Rs 1,380 among Ahmed, John and Babita so that the amount Ahmed receives is 5
times as much as Babita's share and is 3 times as much as John's share.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let-

Babita get X

ajmed will get 5x

John will get X/3

X+5x+X/3= 1380

6x + X/3 = 1380

6x + X = 1380*3

7x = 4140

X = 4140/7

Answer 2

Answer:

Ahmed's share = 900 Rs.

Babita's share = 180 Rs.

John's share = 300 Rs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Babita's share = x

Ahmed's share = 5x

John's share = total amount - Babita's share + Ahmed's share

= Rs 1,380 - x + 5x

= Rs 1,380 - 6x

Ahmed's share is times as much as John's share = 5x = 3 (Rs 1,380 - 6x)

So,

➨ 5x = 4140 - 18x

➨ 5x + 18x = 4140

➨ 23x = 4140

➨ x = 4140 / 23

➨ x = 180

Babita's share = 180

Ahmed's share = 5x

➨ 5 (180) = 5 × 180

➨ 900

John's share = 1,380 - 6x

➨ 1,380 - 6 (180) = 1,380 - 6 × 180

➨ 300

Therefore,

• Ahmed's share = 900 Rs.

• Babita's share = 180 Rs.

• John's share = 300 Rs.
