Answer 2

The price of the moped is Rs. 5250 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price be x

So the ratio be 9x and 5x.

The price of scooter is 4200 Rs more than moped,

So,  then we write as a equation

5x + 4200 = 9x

9x - 5x = 4200

4x = 4200

x = $\frac{4200}{4}$

x = Rs. 1050

Price of Moped = 5x

= 5 $\times$ 1050

= Rs. 5250 .
