Question

Share $120,000 among three pupils in the ratio of their ages 4,3 and 5 respectively. How much will each of them get ?

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find out how much each pupil will get, we need to divide the total amount by the sum of the ratio numbers (4 + 3 + 5 = 12).

The first pupil (age 4) will get: (4/12) * $120,000 = $40,000.
The second pupil (age 3) will get: (3/12) * $120,000 = $30,000.
The third pupil (age 5) will get: (5/12) * $120,000 = $50,000.

So, the first pupil will get $40,000, the second pupil will get $30,000, and the third pupil will get $50,000.

To find out how much each pupil will get, we need to calculate the share for each pupil based on the given ratio.

The given ratio of ages is 4:3:5, which can be simplified by finding the common factor. In this case, the common factor is 1.

To calculate the total shares, we add together the ratio numbers: 4 + 3 + 5 = 12.

Now, we can divide the total amount of money ($120,000) by the total ratio sum (12).

Share for first pupil = (4/12) * $120,000 = $40,000
Share for second pupil = (3/12) * $120,000 = $30,000
Share for third pupil = (5/12) * $120,000 = $50,000

Therefore, the first pupil will get $40,000, the second pupil will get $30,000, and the third pupil will get $50,000.

To divide the money in the ratio of their ages 4, 3, and 5, we need to find the total number of parts in the ratio.

The total number of parts in the ratio is calculated by adding the numbers in the ratio: 4 + 3 + 5 = 12.

Now, we can find the share of each pupil by dividing the total amount ($120,000) by the total number of parts (12):

Share of the first pupil = (4/12) * $120,000
Share of the second pupil = (3/12) * $120,000
Share of the third pupil = (5/12) * $120,000

Calculating each share:

Share of the first pupil = (4/12) * $120,000 = $40,000
Share of the second pupil = (3/12) * $120,000 = $30,000
Share of the third pupil = (5/12) * $120,000 = $50,000

So, the first pupil will get $40,000, the second pupil will get $30,000, and the third pupil will get $50,000.
