Answer 2

$Total \: amount = Rs \:20$

$Ratio \: of \: the \: amount \: divided \\between \: Riya \:and \: Rahul = 2 : 3$

$Let \: Riya \: share = Rs \: 2x\: ---(1)$

$and \: Rahul \: share = Rs \: 3x\: ---(2)$

/* According to the problem given */

$2x + 3x = 20$

$\implies 5x = 20$

$\implies x = \frac{20}{5}$

$\implies x = 4$

/* Substitute x = 4 in (1) and (2) ,we get */

$Riya \: share = Rs \: 2\times 4 = Rs \: 8$

$and \: Rahul \: share = Rs \: 3\times 4 = Rs \: 12$
