Question

divide rs. 7500 in the ratio of 7:8
(Answer by step wise)​

Answer 1

Answer:

3500 and 4000

Step-by-step explanation:

7 : 8 means one will get 7/(7+8)th = 7/15th of the sum of money and another one will get 8/(7+8) = 8/15th of the sum

So Rs. 7500 will be divided as follows :-

One share = Rs. 7500 × 7/15 = Rs. 3500

Another share = Rs. 7500 × 8/15 = Rs. 4000
