Question

if ₹ 2600 are divided between sameer and sunita in the proportion 8:5 the share of each is​

Answer 1

If ₹ 2600 are divided between sameer and sunita in the proportion 8:5 the share of each is

Let the number be x

Money divided = ₹2600

Given ratio = 8 : 5

So it will be 8x : 5x

Now,

8x + 5x = 2600

13x = 2600

x = 2600/13

x = 200

Now,

Sameer will get 8x = 8 × 200 = ₹1600 ans

Sunita will get 5x = 5 × 200 = ₹1000 ans
