Question

Divide Rs.45000 among 2 students Mina and Rita in the ratio of marks they got 40 and 50 respectively

Answer 1

Let

• Money share of Mina=40x
• Money shae of Rita=50x

ATQ

`\\ \qquad\quad\sf{:}\twoheadrightarrow 40x+50x=45000`

`\\ \qquad\quad\sf{:}\twoheadrightarrow 90x=45000`

`\\ \qquad\quad\sf{:}\twoheadrightarrow x=(45000)/(90)`

`\\ \qquad\quad\sf{:}\twoheadrightarrow x=500`

Now

`\\ \qquad\quad\sf{:}\twoheadrightarrow Rita=50x=50(500)=25000`

`\\ \qquad\quad\sf{:}\twoheadrightarrow Mina=40x=40(500)=20000`
