Question
A plot has to be divided among P, Q and R in the ratio
3:4:9 respectively. If the area of plot received by R is 5500m² more than the area of plot received by Q, then find the total area of plot received by P and Q. ÂSolution
Let the area of plot received by P, Q and R be 3x, 4x and 9x respectively. According to the question,  => 4x + 5500 = 9x => 5x = 5500 => x = 5500/5 = 1100 Area of plot received by P and Q together, = 3x + 4x = 7x = 7 x 1100 = 7700m²
