Question 56
A sum is divided between two persons in the ratio 3 : 2. If one person got ₹12 less than the other person, then what is the sum?
Solution
A sum is divided between two persons in the ratio 3 : 2.
Let's assume the share of two persons is 3y and 2y.
If one person got ₹12 less than the other person.
3y-12 = 2y
3y-2y = 12
y = 12
Sum = 3y+2y
= 5y
= $$5\times12$$
= ₹60
