Question

Divide Rs 1100 among A, B and C in the ratio 2 : 3 : 5.

Answer 1

The sum of ratio terms is 10.

Then, we have:

A's share = Rs $\frac{2}{10}\times 1100=\mathrm{Rs}220$

$\mathrm{B}\text{'}\mathrm{s}\mathrm{share}=\mathrm{Rs}\frac{3}{10}\times 1100=\mathrm{Rs}330$

$\mathrm{C}\text{'}\mathrm{s}\mathrm{share}=\mathrm{Rs}\frac{5}{10}\times 1100=\mathrm{Rs}550$
