Question

Divide ruppes 5200 among A and B in ratio 1/4:1/6
(1/4:1/6 are fraction not division)

Answer 1

Answer:

Let, A and B get Rs.x/4 and Rs.x/6 respectively,

Now, x/4+x/6=5200

or, (3*x+2*x)/12 [Being LCM of 4,6=12]

or, 5x/12=5200

or, x=5200*12/5

or, x=12480

Therefore, Amout that A gets=Rs.x/4=Rs.12480/4=3120

Amount that B gets=Rs.x/6=Rs.12480/6=Rs.2080
