Question

If Rs. 1,500 is divided among two persons in the ratio 2:3 then each share is?​

Answer 1

Answer:

6,000 and 9,000

Step-by-step explanation:

2 : 3 :: 2x : 3x

=> 2x + 3x = 1,500

=> 5x = 1,500

=> x = 1,500 / 5

=> x = 3,000

Each person's share = 2x = 2 × 3,000 = 6,000

3x = 3 × 3,000 = 9,000

Answer 2

Answer:

let the money given to both of the person be 2x and 3X

then 2 X + 3 X = 1500 rupees

5 x =1500

X= 1500 / 5

X = 300

2 X = 2 X 300

=600

3 X = 3 X 300

=900
