Question

Divide Rs 3600 between Satya and Vishnu in the ratio of 3 : 5

Answer 1

Total amount = Rs 3600

Ratio between Satya and Vishnu = 3 : 5

Thus, total part in which amount is divided = 3 + 5 part = 8 part

Satya’s amount = 3 part out of total

Vishnu’s amount = 5 part out of total

Thus, 8 part = Rs 3600

1 part = Rs 3600 $÷$ 8 = Rs 450

$\therefore$ Satya’s amount = Rs 450 $\times$ 3 = Rs 1350

And Vishnu’s amount = Rs 450 $\times$ 5 = Rs 2250
