Question

Mother divided money among Ron,Sam,maria in the ratio 2:3:5 .If maria got rs150.Fin the total amount..

Answer 1

Ron got 60
Sam got 90
Maria got 150

Answer 2

Let the money received by Ron, Sam and Maria be 2x, 3x, 5x respectively. 

Given that Maria has got RS 150. 

Therefore, 5x = 150 

or, x = 150/5 

or, x = 30 

So, Ron got = 2x 

                   = rs 2 × 30 = rs.60

Sam got = 3x

              = 3 × 60 = rs.90


Therefore, the total amount RS.(60 + 90 + 150) = rs.300
