Question

rs.9400 divided among p q and r such that the share of p is equal to 4 time share of r.what is the share of r in rs?​

Answer 1

Answer:

A sum of Rs.1300 is divided amongst P,Q, R and S such that p/q share=q/r shares=r/s=2/3.Then p's share is?

Given that

P+Q+R+S=RS.1300.00

P/Q =Q/R=R/S= 2/3

3P=2Q ,

3Q=2R,

3R=2S

i.e. Q=3/2 P,

R= 3/2 Q = (3/2)(3P/2)=9P/4,

& S= 3R/2= 3/2 * 9P/4 = 27P/8

We Know That

P+Q+R+S=1300 substitute Q,R,S values

=== P+ 3P/2 + 9P/4 +27P/4= 1300

=== P(1+3/2+9/4+27/8)= 1300

=== P (8+12+18+27)= 8* 1300

=== 65P= 10400

=== P= 10400/65

=== p= 160
