Question

If we divide Rs 20 between Jatin and Arnav in the ratio 3 : 2, how much will each of
them get?

Answer 1

Answer:

$12

$8

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount Jatin received = (ratio of Jatin's share / sum of ratios) x amount shared

sum of ratios = 3 + 2 = 5

(3/5) x 20 = $12

Amount Arnav received = (ratio of Arnav's share / sum of ratios) x amount shared

(2/5) x 20 = $8

or

$20 - $12 = $8
