Answer 2

Answer:

Share of a woman = Rs.68

Explanation:

Rs. 850 is divided among 4 men, 5 women and 6 boys in the ratio 9:8:4

From the question, we have

Ratio of shares = 9*4 : 8*5:6*4

= 36: 40:24

Share of 5 woman =

$=\frac{40}{40+36+24} *850\\=\frac{40}{100} *850\\=Rs.340$

Share of a woman =

$=\frac{340}{5}\\=Rs.68$

Ratio :

It refers to the comparison between two or more integers as a "ratio." Ratio works as a measuring tool to demonstrate how large or small one quantity is in comparison to another. In a ratio, two quantities are compared by using division. For example, 13 of a group of 30 like to cycle in the morning, whereas 17 prefer to stroll. To represent this data as a ratio, we write it as 17: 13. In this expression, the letter ":" denotes "is to." The ratio of those who prefer to walk to people who prefer to cycle is thus represented by the expression "17 is to 13."
