Question

Riya distributed 777 rupees between her sisters Reema and Ritika in the ratio of 11 : 10, respectively. Find the difference between the share of Reema and Ritika.

Answer 1

37 rupees

Explanation:

The difference in ratio units is 11-10 = 1.

The total number of ratio units is 11+10 = 21, so the difference is 1/21 of the total.

(1/21)(777 rupees) = 37 rupees
