Question

we divide 300 rupees into two parts such that 1/2 of the first and 1/3 of the second are equal. find the difference of the two parts​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let, the first part be x

Then, second part will be 300-x

Acc. To ques.

1/2 of x = 1/3 of ( 300-x)

x/2 = 100- x/3

(x/2) + (x/3) = 100

5x/6 = 100

x= 600/5

x= 120.

Hence, first part is 120 and second is 180

And their difference is 60.
