      Question

      A total amount of Rs. 1220 is to be divided between two

      friends, Ram and Ranjan, in the ratio (7/9):(11/12). What is the difference between the amounts received by Ram and Ranjan?
      A Rs 80 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs 90 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs 100 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs 120 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Ratio of amounts received by Ram and Ranjan = (7/9):(11/12)
      Multiplying throughout by 36, we get
      Ratio of amounts received by Ram and Ranjan = 28:33
      So, required difference = 1220 × {(33 – 28)/(28 + 33)} = Rs. 100
