Question

Rahul divides his collection of 720 stamps among his friends Rohit and Priya

in ratio 5: : 7 How many stamps did each receive?​

Answer 1

5+7 =12

5/12*720=300 Rohit amount

7/12*720=420 Priya amount
420+300=720

Answer 2

Answer:

Given number of stamps to be divided among 2 friends = 720

Number of parts Rohit gets = 5 parts of 720 stamps

Number of parts Priya gets = 7 parts of 720 stamps

Total number parts = 5 + 7 = 12

Number of stamps Rohit received = 5/12 x 720

⇒ 300 stamps

Number of stamps Priya received = 7/12 x 720

⇒ 420 stamps

∴ Number of stamps Rohit received = 300 stamps

∴ Number of stamps Priya received = 420 stamps

Thnx and have a nice day!
