Answer 2

Given - Ratio = 3:2

Total amount = Rs. 120

Find - Amount to be divided

Solution - Let the money to be divided be 3x and 2x.

Now, total money is 120. Thus, representing given information in mathematical form -

3x + 2x = 120

5x = 120

x = 120/5

x = 24

Hence, x is 24.

So, the amount to be divided will be -

Amount = 3x

Amount = 3*24

Amount = Rupees 72

Amount = 2x

Amount = 2*24

Amount = Rupees 48

Thus, as per given information, Ram will recieve Rupees 72 and Kamal will receive Rupees 48.
