Please show the calculation

Answer 1

let the ratio terms be 5x and 7x
total 5x+7x=12x
aania= 5x/12x*1500
=5/12*1500
=5*125
=625
biju=1500-625
=875

Answer 2

let the amount they get be x. So,
5x+7x=1500
12x=1500
x=1500/12
=125.

So the amount each one will get is
5x=5*x=5*125=625
7x=7*x=7*125=875

Therefore Aania gets rupees 625 and
Biju gets rupees 875.
Hope it's correct.
