Question

divide rupees 400 among A:B:C in the ratio 2:5:4 how much amount did each get​

Answer 1

Answer:

First part = X/(X + Y + Z) × K,

Second part = Y/(X + Y + Z) × K,

Third part = Z/(X + Y + Z) × K.

For example, suppose, we have to divide $ 1200 among X, Y, Z in the ratio 2 : 3 : 7. This means that if X gets 2 portions, then Y will get 3 portions and Z will get 7 portions. Thus, total portions = 2 + 3 + 7 = 12. So, we have to divide $ 1200 into 12 portions and then distribute the portions among X, Y, Z according to their share.

Thus, X will get 2/12 of $ 1200, i.e., 2/12 × 1200 = $ 200

Y will get 3/12 of $ 1200, i.e., 3/12 × 1200 = $ 300

Z will get 7/12 of $ 1200, i.e., 7/12 × 1200 = $ 700

Answer 2

A=200

B=80

C=100 this will be the value of a,b and c
