divide rs . 116000 among 3 persons a , b and c such that the ratio of the shares of a and b is 3 : 4 and that of b : c is 5 : 6 . find the share of a ?
compound ratio of a : b : c a : b = 3 : 4 b : c = 5 : 6 - - - - - - - - - - a : b : c = 15 : 20 : 24 we can divide rs . 116000 in this ratio . share of a = 15 / 59 * 116000 = 29491 answer : a
multiply(116000, divide(multiply(3, 5), add(add(multiply(3, 5), multiply(4, 5)), multiply(4, 6))))
