Question

Divide Rs.11000 among A, B and C such that A: B is 33:20 and A: C is 11:19.Find A`s share.

Answer 1

Answer:

₹3300

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{a}{b} = \frac{33}{20} = \frac{11}{ \frac{20}{3} }$

$\frac{a}{c} = \frac{11}{19}$

Therefore A's Share is 11x

B's share is 20x/3

and C's share is 19x

Now we can write

$11x + \frac{20}{3} x + 19x = 11000$

$33x + 20x + 57x = 33000$

$110x = 33000$

$x = 300$

Hence A's share is 11x= ₹3300
