Question

Salaries of usha and esha are in ratio 2:3. If salary of each increased by 4000, the ratio become 40:57. What is salary of esha

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the ratio be 2x and 3x

if we increased each by 4000

So,

2x+4000/3x+4000=40/57

57(2x+4000)=40(3x+4000)

114x+228000=120x+160000

114x-120x=160000-228000

-6x=-68000

X=1133
