Question

If Rs 75,000 are to be divided amongst A, B, and C in the ratio 5: 4: 6 ,how much does A get?


​

Answer 1

Answer:

5x+4x+6x = 75000

15x = 75000

x = 75000/15

x = 5000

A = 5000×5

A = 25000

Answer 2

Answer:

• A is gonna get Rs. 25000.

Given:

• Ratio of A,B and C = 5:4:6
• Amount to be divided = 75,000.

To find:

• How much does A get?

Solution:

Let A be 5x

Let B be 4x

Let C be 6x

• The equation will be:

➥ 5x + 4x + 6x = 75,000

➥ 15x = 75,000

➥ x = $\bf \dfrac{75000}{15}$

• By simplifying, We get :

➥ x = 5000

So,

A = 5x = 5 × 5000 = Rs 25000

B = 4x = 4 × 5000 = Rs 20000

C = 6x = 6 × 5000 = Rs 30000

Therefore, A is gonna get Rs. 25000.
