Answer 1

let Ajay get 5x
let Varun get 7x
Total money among them = ₹1500
A.T.Q
5x+7x=1500
12x=1500
x=1500/12
x=125
therefore,
Money got by Ajay = 5x = 5×125=₹625
Money got by Varun = 7x=7×125= ₹875

THANK YOU ... HOPE HELP YOU

Answer 2

Total amount = Rs. 1500
Ratio of the shares of Ajay and Varun = 5 : 7

Let the share of Ajay be 5x and that of Varun be 7x.

Hence, according to the question,

Sum of the shares of Ajay and Varun = Rs. 1500
5x + 7x = Rs. 1500
OR 12x = Rs. 1500
OR x = Rs. 1500 / 12
OR x = Rs. 750 / 6
OR x = Rs. 125

Now, as discussed earlier,
Share of Ajay = 5x = 5 * 125 = Rs. 625
Share of Varun = 7x = 7 * 125 = Rs. 875
