Question

Divide Rs 1400 among A. B and C in the ratio 2 : 3 : 5.

Answer 1

Given:
A:B:C = 2:3:5
Sum of ratio = 2 + 3 + 5 = 10
Total money = Rs 1400
Then, share of A = `2/10` × Rs 1400 = Rs `2800/10` = Rs 280

Share of B = `3/10`​× Rs 1400 = Rs `4200/10` = Rs 420

Share of C = `5/10` ​× Rs 1400 = Rs `7000/10` = Rs 700
