Question

Riya and tanishka together bought a lottery ticket costing Rs 100. Riya put in Rs 30 . and tanishka put in Rs 70. They won a prize of Rs 18000. They decided to share the prize in the ratio 30: 70. How much money did each recieve?

Answer 1

Riya received =5400
Tanishka received =12600

Answer 2

Prize money= Rs 100

Let the ratio be 30x and 70x

30x+70x = 18000

100x = 18000

x = 18000/100

x = 180

Money received by Riya= 30x = 30*180 = Rs 5400

Money received by Tanishka = 70x = 70*180 = Rs 12600
