Question 55

A sum of ₹1,260 is distributed between Ravi and Mohan. If the shares of Ravi and Mohan are in ratio 5 : 4, then the shares of Ravi and Mohan are respectively:

Solution

Given, Sum = ₹1,260

Ratio of shares of Ravi and Mohan = 5 : 4

Let the share of Ravi and Mohan are 5p and 4p respectively.

$$\Rightarrow$$ 5p + 4p = 1260

$$\Rightarrow$$ 9p = 1260

$$\Rightarrow$$ 1p = 140

Share of Ravi = 5p = 5 x 140 = ₹700

Share of Mohan = 4p = 4 x 140 = ₹560

Hence, the correct answer is Option C
