Question

Ram and Ankush had 4500 stamps altogether.lf Ram had 4/5 as many stamps as Ankush,how many stamps did Ankush have​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the no. of stamps on ankush be 'x'

therefore,

no. of stamps on ram= 4x/5

(no.of stamps on ankush) + (no. of stamps on ram) = 4500

x+(4x/5)=4500

(taking L.C.M. of 5 & 1)

(5x+4x)/5=4500

9x/5= 4500

x=4500*5/9

x=2500

hence, .

no of stamps on ankush=2500

no. of stamps on ram =2000

Answer 2

Answer:

Ankush have 2500 stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

let the no. of stamps ankush have=x

so, no. of stamps ram have=4/5x

4/5x+x=4500

=9/5x=4500

=x=4500×5/9

=x=2500

Therefore ankush have 2500 stamps
