Question

Divide $Rs.1350$ between Ravish and Shikha in the ratio $2:3$.

Answer 1

Given amount is $Rs.1350$

The ratio between Ravish and Shikha is $2:3$

$\Rightarrow$ Total number of parts $=2+3=5$

$\Rightarrow$ Ravish's share $=\frac{2}{5}\times Rs.1350$

$=2\times Rs.270$

$=Rs.540$

$\therefore$ Ravish's share $=Rs.540$

$\Rightarrow$ Shikha's share $=Rs.1350-Rs.540=Rs.810$

Hence, the shares of Ravish and Shikha are $Rs.540$ and $Rs.810$ respectively.
