Question

Divide Rs. 6450 among A, B, C and D such that when A gets Rs. 9, B gets Rs. 8; when B gets Rs. 6, C gets Rs. 5 and when C gets Rs 4, D gets Rs. 3.

Answer 1

Answer:

let the amount A gets be x ,so

the amount B gets = x-1

and C= x-1-1 =x-2

and D = x-2-1 = x-3

total amount = 6450

it means , x+x-1+x-2+x-3 = 6450

4x-1-2-3=6450

4x-3-3 = 6450

4x-6 = 6450

4x = 6450 + 6 = 6456

x = 6456/4

x = 1614

it means A gets Rs 1614

and B gets x-1 = 1614-1=1613

and C gets x-2= 1614-2=1612

and D gets x-3 = 1614-3 = 1611
