Question

Divide Rs 7400 among three people A, B, and C in the ratio 3:5:12.​

Answer 1

Let the rupees be 3x, 5x, 12x.

3x + 5x + 12x = 7400

20x = 7400

x = 7400/20

x = 370

A will get 3x = Rs. 1110

B will get 5x = Rs. 1850

C will get 12x = Rs. 4440.

Answer 2

Answer:

A's share = ₹1110

B's share = ₹1850

C's share = ₹4440

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Money should be divided into A , B and C = ₹ 7400

Money of A,B and C are in ratio = 3:5:12

To find :

Divide the money into A , B and C

Concept :

Let the ratio be x .

So , the equation will form like this -:

$\boxed{\sf{3x+5x+12x=7400}}$

So , after finding the value of x multiply the ratio with the value of x to find the share between A , B and C .

Solution :

$\leadsto\sf{3x+5x+12x=7400}$

$\leadsto\sf{8x+12x=7400}$

$\leadsto\sf{20x=7400}$

$\leadsto\sf{x=\dfrac{7400}{20}}$

$\leadsto\sf{x=370}$

So , the value of x is ₹ 370 .

Now , A's share -:

$\leadsto\sf{370\times3}$

$\leadsto\sf{1110}$

So , A's share is ₹ 1110 .

B's share -:

$\leadsto\sf{370\times5}$

$\leadsto\sf{1850}$

So , B's share is ₹ 1850 .

C's share -:

$\leadsto\sf{370\times12}$

$\leadsto\sf{4440}$

So , the C's share is ₹ 4440 .
