Answer 2

To divide Rs 3600 between two in the ratio 4:5,

Explanation:

• Ratio, in math, is a term used to compare two or more numbers and indicate how big or small one is compared to another.
• In any ratio, two quantities are compared using division, wherein the dividend is the 'antecedent' and the divisor is the 'consequent'.

Here, Total parts = 4+5 =9

i.e. 9x= 3600 and thus x = $\frac{3600}{9}$ = 400

Dividing between two in the ratio 4:5, we get

First  part of the ratio, 4x = $3600\times\frac4{4+5}$ = 1600

Second part of the ratio, 5x = $3600\times\frac5{4+5}$ = 2000
