Question

Malachy, Sushil and Fiona share some sweets in the ratio 1:3:1. Malachy gets 5 sweets. How many did Sushil get?

Answer 1

Answer:

As per propotionality theorem;

No. of sweet Malachy get=5

=1/1+1+3*total sweet =5

=1/5*total sweet =5

=Total sweet=5*5=25

Therefore sweets Shushil will get=3/1+3+1*25

                                                         =3/5*25

                                                        =3*5

                                                         =15

Hence Shushil will get 15 sweets.
