Question

If Rs 50 is divided among P and Q in the ratio 3:2 , then Q's shara is Rs

Answer 1

Answer:

If Rs 50 is divided among P and Q in the ratio 3:2, then Q's share is 20 Rs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The ratio of P and Q is 3: 2

And total amount = Rs 50

Find Q's shara is Rs

If the common multiple is x

then the share of P is 3x

And the share of Q is 2x

As per given condition

3x + 2x = 50

5x = 50

x = 50/5

x = 10

So, the share of P is 3(10) = 30 Rs

And the share of Q is 2(10) = 20 Rs

Answer 2

as per given question,

3x + 2x = 50

5x = 50

x = 50/5

x= 10

p is 3x = 3 x 10= 30

q is 2x = 2 x 10= 20
