Question

Harsh and Chetan win $₹500$between them They agree to divide the money in the ratio of $2:3$ What amount will each person receive?

Answer 1

Step-1: Add together the number of parts in the ratio $2:3$

$2+3=$$5$

Step-2: Find the value of $1$part

The value of $5$part $=$$₹500$

The value of $1$part $=\frac{500}{5}=$$₹100$

Step-3: Find the share of Harsh which is $2$parts

The value of $2$parts $=2\times 100=$$₹200$----------( value of $1$part = $₹100$)

Step-4: Find the share of Chetan which is $3$parts

The value of $3$parts $=3\times 100=$$₹300$----------( value of $1$part = $₹100$)

Hence, Harshit got $₹200$ and Chetan got $₹300$
