Question

Given : Arun's weight $=30$kg, and ratio of Arun's weight to Vinay's weight is $6:11$. Find Vinay's weight.

• A. $55$kg
• B. $25$kg
• C. $45$kg
• D. $66$kg

Answer 1

The correct option is A

$55$kg

Ratio of Arun's weight to Vinay's weight $=$ $\frac{\text{Arun's Weight}}{\text{Vinay's Weight}}$ $=$ $\frac{6}{11}$

Arun's Weight = 30 kg

Hence $\frac{30}{\text{Vinay's Weight}}$ $=$ $\frac{6}{11}$

Vinay's Weight $=$ $\frac{11\times 30}{6}$

$=55$kg
