A certain sum of money was divided between A, B and C in the ratio 5 : 6 : 9. If A received Rs. 450, the sum divided was
-
- Rs. 2000
- Rs. 1800
- Rs. 2250
- Rs. 1000
Correct Option: B
Let the total amount be Rs. x.
It is given that,
A : B : C = 5 : 6 : 9
Sum of the terms of ratio = 5 + 6 + 9 = 20
| ∴ A’s share = Rs. | |
| 20 |
| = Rs. | |
| 4 |
| ∴ | = Rs. 450 | |
| 4 |
⇒ x = Rs. (4 × 450)
= Rs. 1800
