Question

Divide Rs. 780 in the ratio of 1/2:1/3:1/4​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(3*2x)+(2*6x)+(1*8x) = 780

6x+12x+8x = 26x = 780

x = 30

A man gets Rs.90, a woman gets Rs.60 and a boy gets Rs.30.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

The amount = Rs. 780

To find :-

Divide Rs. 780 in the ratio of 1/2:1/3:1/4 ?

Solution :-

Given amount = Rs. 780

Given ratio = 1/2 : 1/3 : 1/4

LCM of 2 , 3 , 4 = 12

Then the ratio becomes 6/12 : 4/12 : 3/12

=> 6:4:3

Let they be 6X , 4X and 3X

Total parts = 6X+4X+3X = 13X

=> 13X = 780

=> X = 780/13

=> X = 60

Now,

If X = 60 then 6X = 6(60) = 360

If X = 60 then 4X = 4(60) = 240

If X = 60 then 3X = 3(60) = 180

The amounts = Rs. 360, Rs. 240 and Rs. 180

Answer:-

The shares of the amount according to the ratio are Rs. 360, Rs. 240 and Rs. 180
