Answer 2

Given :

Amount =108

To Find:

Divide rupees 108 among A, B &C in ratio 3:4:5

Solution:

Amount = 108

Divide rupees 108 among A, B &C in ratio 3:4:5

Let the ratio be x

A's Share = 3x

B's share = 4x

C's share = 5x

Total Amount = 108

So, 3x+4x+5x=108

12x=108

$x=\frac{108}{12}$

x=9

A's Share = 3x=3(9)=27

B's share = 4x=4(9)=36

C's share = 5x=5(9)=45

Hence A, B and C share are Rs.27 , Rs.36 and Rs.45 respectively.
