Answer 2

Given that,

Four friends Harshit Kunal Manju and Rahul went to a trip. Harshit paid 2/7 of the bill and rest of the bill was shared by kunal manju and rahul equally.

To find,

The fraction of the bill was paid by each.

Solution,

Let the bill paid by Kunal, Manju and Rahul is x. So, according to question,

$\dfrac{2}{7}+x+x+x=1\\\\\dfrac{2}{7}+3x=1\\\\3x=1-\dfrac{2}{7}\\\\3x=\dfrac{7-2}{7}\\\\3x=\dfrac{5}{7}\\\\x=\dfrac{5}{21}$

So, fraction of the bill paid by each is $\dfrac{5}{21}$.
