Question

A sum of $₹10,200$ is divided among three persons A,B and C in the ratio $4:6:7$ respectively. Find the share of each persons.

Answer 1

Step 1: Find the sum of terms of the ratio

Ratio between A,B and C = $4:6:7$

Sum of the terms of the ratio= $4+6+7=17$

Step 2: Find the amount A and B get

A gets = $\frac{4}{17}\times ₹10200=4\times 600=₹2400$

B gets = $\frac{6}{17}\times ₹10200=6\times 600=₹3600$

C gets = $\frac{7}{17}\times ₹10200=7\times 600=₹4200$

Hence, A gets $₹2400$ and B gets $₹3600$ and C gets $₹4200$.
