Question

Sita and Soby divided some money in the ratio 3 : 2 and Sita got 480 rupees.
What is the total amount they divided​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Sita got 480 rupees

ratio= 3:2

Let they be 3x and 2x

3x for Sita and 2x for Soby

Now, 3x=480

x=160

Rupees for Soby= 2 x 160= Rs 320

Total amount= 320+480= Rs 800

Answer 2

Answer:

step of explanation:

let the ratio be y

ratios are ...3y and 2y

total amount= 3y+2y

=5y

Sita's money= 3y

480 = 3y

x = 480÷3

x= 180

3y = 480

2y = 320

total amount = 3x+2x

= 5x

= 5 x 160

= 800

so, the total amount = Rs800
