Question

the profit of a shop is Rs.3210. if 2/5 of it belongs to A, 1/3 to B and the remaining to C, what is the share of each?

Answer 1

Total profit = Rs 3210
Money A will get = 2/5 of total profit
=2/5 of 3210 = 2/5×3210=642×2= Rs1284

Money B will get = 1/3 of total profit
= 1/3 of 3210=1/3×3210=Rs1070

Money C will get = Total - Sum of money A and B got
=3210-(1284+1070)=3210-2354
= Rs 856

Answer 2

The profit of a shop = 3210

A's share = 2/5

B's share= 1/3

Lets make the denominator equal.....in all cases..

A = 2/5 = 6/15 (by multipling and dividing with 3)

B = 1/3 = 5/15 (by multipling and dividing with 5)

so A = 6/15 B = 5/15 ... then C will be

1 - 6/15 - 5 /15

(15-(6+5))/15

4/15 is the C's share..

Shared Amount = ...

A = 3210 × 6/15 = 1284

B = 3210 × 5/15 = 1070

C = 3210 × 4/15 = 856
