Question

the sum of money is divided among p, q, r in the ratio of 2:3:5. if amount of p and r together is ₹400 more than that of q. what is r amount​

Answer 1

Answer:

let share of P, Q & R be 2x,3x & 5x respectively

so from the condition,

2x+5x = 3x + 400

⇒ 7x = 3x + 400

⇒4x = 400

⇒x = 100

⇒5x = 500

so R`s share is Rs. 500
