Question

Dividing rs.3600 between satya and vishnu in the ratio of 3:5

Answer 1

Satya will get Rs.1350 and Vishnu will get Rs.2250.

Explanation:

Given the total money is Rs.3600 and the ratio of Satya and Vishnu is 3:5, we can say that

Let,

Satya's share = 3x

Vishnu's share = 5x

We know that

`\sf 3x + 5x = 3600`

`\sf 8x = 3600`

`\sf x =( 3600)/(8)`

x = 450

Therefore,

`\sf \textsf{ Satya's share }= 3x = 3* 450 = Rs.1350`

`\sf \textsf{ Vishnu's share }= 5x = 5* 450 = Rs.2250`

So, Satya will get Rs.1350 and Vishnu will get Rs.2250.
