Question

Divide rs 500 between rita and seta such that one third share of rita and half share of seta are equal

Answer 1

Let the share of rita and seta be x and y respectively.

According to question

x/3 = y/2

So y = 2x/3

Now x + y = 500

x + ( 2x/3 ) = 500

x + 2x/3 = 500

( 3x + 2x ) ÷ 3 = 500

5x ÷ 3 = 500

5x = 500 * 3

x = 1500/5

x = 300

Therefore share of rita = Rs 300

And share of seta = Rs 300 * 2/3

= Rs 200
