Question

Divide Rs. 4,250 into three parts such that the second is 80% of the first and the ratio between the

first and the third is 5 : 8.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Ratio of first and third = 5 : 8

Second is 80% of first, 

So,

Ratio of first, second and third,

= 5 : 80% of 5 : 8

= 5 : 4 : 8

So,

First = (4250 * 5)/17 = Rs. 1250.

Second = (4250 * 4)/17 = Rs. 1000

Third = Rs. 2000

Answer 2

Answer:

1st ratio is 1250

2nd ratio is 1000

3rd ratio is 2000
