Question

In an examination the marks obtained by Virat and Rana are in the ratio 5:7. If Rana obtained 91 marks, how many marks were obtained by Virat? Pls give an emplanation

Answer 1

Answer:

65

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the marks of virat as 5x and rana as 7x ( because they are in the ratio 5:7)

rana scored 91

so 7x=91

  x = 91/7

     = 13

virat scored 5x

so marks of virat are 5*13 = 65

virat scored 65 marks
