Question

(f)
7850 sticks have to be divided among three people in the ratio 6: 11: 8.
Find the share of each.​

Answer 1

Answer :-

We are given total number of sticks and ratio of sticks each person get.

So, Let the number of sticks each three preson get be 6x , 11x and 8x.

So,

➩ 6x + 11x + 8x = 7850

➩ 25x = 7850

➩ x = 7850/25

➩ x = 314

Number of sticks each get,

➩ 6x = 6 × 314 = 1184

➩ 11x = 11 × 314 = 3454

➩ 18x = 11 × 314 = 2512

Hence, share of each will be 1184 , 3454 and 2512 respectively.

Answer 2

★ Given :

• Total sticks = 7850
• Three people in the ratio 6: 11: 8.

★ To Find :

• How many sticks does each person have ?

★ Solution :

☯︎ Let the ratio be 'x'

↦ 6x + 11x + 8x = 7850

↦ 25x = 7850

↦ x = 7850 / 25

↦ x = 314 sticks

Now, we have ratio 6x, 11x, 8x.

↦ 6x = 6 × 314 = 1884

↦ 11x = 11 × 314 = 3454

↦ 8x = 8 × 314 = 2512

■ Hence, Share of each will be 1884, 3454, 2512 respectively.

★ Check :

↦1884 + 3454 + 2512 = 7850

■ Hence checked ✔
