Question

Rekha andsujatha decide to divide sweets in the ratio of 3:4. If they had 700 sweets in all, how many sweets did each one get?

Answer 1

Answer:

rekha gets 300 while sujatha gets 400

Answer 2

Answer:

Rekha = 300 ,  Sujatha = 400

Step-by-step explanation:

let rekha's sweets be  3x

and, sujatha's sweets be  4x

then the sum of sweets of both of them should be 700

so, 3x+4x=700

7x=700

x=700/7

x=100

Rekha's sweet = 3x

                        =3*100

                        =300

Sujatha's sweet = 4x

                          =4*100

                          =400
