Question

share of a,b,c respectively is what if rs 4340 is divided in 1/2:1/3:1/5

Answer 1

Hi ,

Total amount = Rs 4340

Ratio = 1/2 : 1/3 : 1/5

Find LCM of 2 , 3 , 5

LCM = 30

Mulitply each term in the ratio with LCM

Ratio = 30 / 2 : 30 / 3 : 30 / 5

= 15 : 10 : 6

Sum of the ratio = 15 + 10 + 6 = 31

31 equal parts = Rs 4340

1 Equal part = 4340 / 31

1 equal part = 140

Therefore ,

A ' s share = 15 parts

= 15 × 140

= Rs 2100

B's share = 10 parts

= 10 × 140

= Rs 1400

C's share = 6 parts

= 6 × 140

= Rs 840

I hope this helps you.
