Given: ratios as 3:5:12
To find: amounts that A B C gets respectively in the ratio 3:5:12
Solution: let the amount that A gets be 3x, B gets 5x, and C gets 12x
As, the total amount that is being divided is 7400 Rs thus amount that A, B and C gets must total up to 7400 Rs
Therefore, 3x + 5x + 12x = 7400
=> 20x = 7400
=> x = 7400/20
=> x = 370 Rs
Therefore, 3x = 3*370 = 1110 Rs
5x = 5*370 = 1850 Rs
12x = 12*370 = 4440 Rs.
