Answer:

A's share = ₹1000

B's share = ₹1400

C's share = ₹1600

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Total money = ₹4,000

Divide money in the ratio of A,B,C = 5:7:8

To find :

The share between A , B and C

Taken :

Let the A , B , C share be x

So , to find the share between A,B,C use this formula -:

\boxed{\sf{5x+7x+8x=Rs.4000}}

After finding the value of x multiply with the ratio to find the A , B and C 's share .

Solution :

:\implies\sf{5x+7x+8x=Rs.4000}

:\implies\sf{20x=Rs.4000}

:\implies\sf{x=\cancel{\dfrac{Rs.4000}{20}}}

:\implies\sf{x=Rs.200}

A's share -:

:\implies\sf{Rs.200\times5}

:\implies\sf{Rs.1000}

B's share -:

:\implies\sf{Rs.200\times7}

:\implies\sf{Rs.1400}

C's share -:

:\implies\sf{Rs.200\times8}

:\implies\sf{Rs.1600}

Answer:

solution here;

total amount = Rs 4000

given ratio of A, B, C = 5:7:8

Let the common multiple be x

therefore the ratio of A, B, C will be 5x, 7x and 8x respectively.

then, 5x + 7x +8x = 4000

or, 20 x = 4000

or, x = 4000÷20

therefore, x = 200

putting x = 200 in the given ratio

A = 5x = 5×200= Rs 1000

B = 7x = 7×200= Rs 1400

C = 8x = 8× 200 = Rs 1600

so, there shares is Rs ( 1000, 1400 and 1600 ) respectively
