Question

If we divide es 2400 in the ratio 3:7:5 among a b c then a wil be

Answer 1

Answer:

a:b:c = 2:3:5

total ratio = 2+3+5=8

Now,

Share of a = 2/8 x 2400 = 480 rs

Share of b = 3/8 x 2400 = 720 rs

Share of c = 5/8 x 2400 = 1200 rs

Now if b gives 20 rs to a, then their new share would be

a = 480 + 20 = 500 rs

b = 720 - 20 = 700 rs

c = 1200 rs

Now

ratio a:b = 500 / 700

= 5:7

ratio b:c = 700/ 1200

= 7:12

Ratio a:b:c = 5x7 : 7x7 : 7x17

= 35 : 49 : 119

= 5 : 7 : 17 ans
