Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Amar and binod bought 75 and 45 sacks of wheat , total 120 sacks.

Now they return back to home and devided equally means each received 40 sacks of wheat . in question given that chetan pay 1400 for his part which he receive . here chetan receive 40 sacks of wheat. it means

40 sacks of wheat price is 1400 rs now ,

1 sack of wheat price 1400/ 40 = 35 rs

binod bought 45 sacks of wheat it means he spend 35× 45 = 1575 rs

now amar bought 75 sacks of wheat then he spends 75×35 = 2625 rs

now cost of wheat = 35×120 = 4200rs

now chetan pay 1225 to amr and 175 pay to binod fir equal split if the sacks.....
