Question

Instead of dividing Rs. 180 among A,B,C in the ratio (1/3) : (1/4) : (1/6) respectively, it was divided in the ratio Rs.3:4:6 by mistake: who gained in the transaction

Answer 1

Only C dear bcoz if they were distributed in the before ratio C would get the lowest but when distribution on the basis of second C got more.

In the first ratio

LCM of 3, 4 and 6 is 12.

Making the denominator of the fractions 12 by multiplying

We get

1/3 =4/12

1/4=3/12

1/6=2/12

So C gets less in first ratio

But in second it gets 6 which is greater than 2/12.

HOPE IT HELPS DEAR
