Question

Divide rules 1575 between Kamal and Madhu in the ratio 7:2

Answer 1

Let the common ratio be a
7a+2a=1575
9a=1575
a=175
First part =7*175=1225
Second part =2*175=350

Answer 2

Kamal : Madhu = 7 : 2

Kamal's share = 7 /9 x 1575 =  7 x 175 = 1225

Madhu's share = 2 / 9 x 1575 = 2 x 175 = 350
