Question

Rs.10000 is divided among Sayathri, Supriya and Aravali. If Supriya got 10 times the amount given to Sayathri, then what is the maximum possible amount Sayatri could have received (approx.)?

Answer 1

Answer:

Rs 909.091

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

Let Sayathri had received an amount of 'x' Rs.

Given that Supriya received 10 times the amount given to Sayathri

=> Supriya received 10x.

Let 'A' be the amount Aravali has received.

Also given that total of 10,000 is distributed among all 3.

=> x + 10x + A = 10,000

=> 11x + A = 10,000

=> x = (10,000 - A)/11

'x' would be maximum if A is minimum which is 0

=> Maximum value of 'x' would be 10,000/11 = 909.091(approximately).

Thus, Sayathri could have received maximum of 909.091 Rs.

Hope , it helped !
