Question

Please solve this problem faster than the speed of train. Salaries of Ravi and Sudhir are in ratio 2:3. If the salary of each is increased by ₹4000 the new ratio becomes 40:56. What is Sudhirs salary

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let salaries of ravi and sudhir be x

So 2x:3x

If their salaries are increased by 4000 rupees . Then

2x:3x+ 4000= 40:56

By property of proportion , product of extreme = product of means .

(2x*56)+ 4000= (3x*40)

112x+ 4000 = 120x

4000 = 120x- 112x

4000 = 8x

x = 4000/8

x = 500

So , their salary of

Ravi are 2*x = 2*500

That is equal to 1000 rupees

Salary of Sudhir is 3*x =3*500

That is equal to 1500 rupees ....

Hope this helps up .
