Question

X,Y,Z divide Rs 1200 in the ratio 2:3:5, then Y’s share


​

Answer 1

Answer:

let the ratio constant be x

thus,

2x, 3x and 5x is the money

2x+3x+5x=1200

10x=1200

x=120

thus,

x's share=2x=2x1203rs.240

y's share=3x=3x120=rs.360 C's

z's share=5x=5x120=rs.600

Answer 2

Let the y share be x
1200=2x+3x+5x
1200=10x
X=1200/10
X=120
Y share =3x120
=360 is the correct answer
