Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The ratio of the sum of money distributed among P, Q, R and S is 2 : 4 : 6 : 7.

Calculation:

Let the sum of money of P be 2x.

Similarly, The sum of money of Q be 4x.

The sum of money of R be 6x.

The sum of money of S be 7x.

According to the question;

The difference between R and S = 600

⇒ 7x - 6x = 600

⇒ x = 600

Then, the sum of P = 2 × 600 = 1200

Similarly, the sum of Q = 4 × 600 = 2400

The sum of R = 6 × 600 = 3600

The sum of S = 7 × 600 = 4200

Then, the sum of P and Q = 1200 + 2400 = 3600

∴ The sum of the P and Q share is Rs 3600.
