Question

If 391 bananas are distributed among three monkeys in the ratio 1/2:2/3:3/4, how many bananas did the first monkey get

Answer 1

195 bananas will the first monkey get.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

given :

total banana = 391

total monkey = 3

ratio = 1/2 : 2/3 : 3/4

take the lcm of these ratio

6:8:9/12

new ratio

6:8:9

now add these ratio

6+8+9 = 23

number of bananas the first monkey get =

6 * 391/23

= 6*17

= 102
