Question

Divide Rs 5600 between A,B and C in the ratio 1:3:4

Answer 1

let the money divided between A, B and C as x, 3x and 4x respectively
so, ATQ
x+3x+4x=5600
8x=5600
x=700
so,
money with A = 700
money with B = 2100
money with C = 2800

Answer 2

Let A's share be x
Let B's share be 3x
Let C's share be 4x
AC/Q
x+3x+4x=5600
8x=5600
=5600/8=700

A's share=Rs.700
B's share=Rs.2100
C's share=Rs.2800
