Answer 2

Answer:

$First \:part = 25\\Second \:part = 50 \\Third \:part = 100$

Step-by-step explanation:

$Total \: amount = Rs\:175\:(given)$

$Ratio = 1:2:4$

$Let \: First \:part = x\\Second \:part = 2x \\Third \:part = 4x$

$sum \: of \:three \:parts = 175$

$\implies x + 2x + 4x = 175$

$\implies 7x = 175$

$\implies x = \frac{175}{7}=25$

Therefore,

$First \:part = x = 25\\Second \:part = 2x =2\times 25 = 50\\Third \:part = 4x=4\times 25 = 100$
