An amount of Rs. 2,100 is divided among D, E, and F in
the ratio 5:4:6. Find the difference between the amount received by D and E together and E and F together.Solution
ATQ, Let the amounts received by D, E, and F be Rs. 5x, Rs. 4x, and Rs. 6x respectively.
Amount received by D and E = 2100 × (5 + 4) ÷ (5 + 4 + 6) = 2100 × 9 ÷ 15 = Rs. 1260
Amount received by E and F = 2100 × (4 + 6) ÷ 15 = 2100 × 10 ÷ 15 = Rs. 1400
Required difference = 1400 - 1260 = Rs. 140
