Question

a sum of money was divded between rajeev and ashish so that
rajiv gets 7/19 of the whole amount if he gets rupees 5600, how
much was the total sum

Pooja · Accepted Answer

Let the total sum of money be Rs x

Rajiv gets 719 times of x and his share is equal to
5600

this means,

7x19 = 5600

⇒ x = 5600 × 197 ⇒ x = 1064007 = Rs 15200

Thus, the total sum x is Rs 15200

a sum of money was divded between rajeev and ashish so that rajiv gets 7/19 of the whole amount. if he gets rupees 5600, how much was the total sum.
