Question

Divide Rs. 720 among x, y and z in the ratio 5 : 4 : 9​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=200

y= 160

z= 360

Step-by-step explanation:

let they will be in the form of a

5a+4a + 9a= 720

18a=720

a= 720/18

a= 40

5a= x= 200

4a= y = 160

9a = z = 360

Answer 2

Suppose5:4:9=5x,4x,9x

Then,

5x+4x+9x =₹720

18x = ₹720

x= 720/18

=40

So,

5x= 5*40=200

4x= 4*40= 160

9x= 9*40= 360
