Question

Divide ₹960 between Manu and Swapna in the ratio 5: 7

Answer 1

Answer: 400 : 560

Step-by-step explanation:

add 5 and 7 = 12

960/12 = 80

multiply the numbers again to get the right ratio

(5 x 80) : (7 x 80)

= 400 : 560

Answer 2

Ratio gives the fractional division of a whole into a given portion. Manu's will get 400 while Swapna will get 560.

To divide 960 in the ratio 5 : 7

• Sum the ratio = (5 + 7) = 12
• Manu's share = 5 × (960/12) = 400

• Swapna's share = 7 × (960/12) = 560

Therefore, Manu and Swapna's share is 400 and 560 respectively.
