Question

Five rupees is divided continuously among rahul ,Shelly and Saisha Rahul always get Rs .02 ,Shelly always get Rs .03 ,and saisha get Rs .05, until All the money is gone. How much money does each one gets?

Answer 1

Amount that Rahul got in each part = Rs.0.02 = 2 paise
Amount that Shelly got in each part = Rs.0.03 = 3 paise
Amount that Saisha got in each part = Rs.0.05 = 5 paise
Total amount to divide = Rs.5 = 500 paise
Total amount that Rahul, Shelly and Saisha got = 2 + 3 + 5 = 10 paise
So the amount that Rahul got in 10 paise = 2 paise
Then, the amount that Rahul got in 100 paise = $\frac{2}{10}\times 100$ = 20 paise
So, the amount that Rahul got in 500 paise = $\frac{20}{100}\times 500$ = 100 paise = Rs.1

Also the amount that Shelly got in 10 paise = 3 paise
Then, the amount that Shelly got in 100 paise = $\frac{3}{10}\times 100$ = 30 paise
So, the amount that Shelly got in 500 paise = $\frac{30}{100}\times 500$ = 150 paise = Rs.1.50

Similarly the amount that Saisha got in 10 paise = 5 paise
Then, the amount that Saisha got in 100 paise = $\frac{5}{10}\times 100$ = 50 paise
So, the amount that Saisha got in 500 paise = $\frac{50}{100}\times 500$ = 250 paise = Rs.2.50
