1.	Divide ₹880 between Rajan and kamal in the ratio (1/5): (1/6).
Answer» From the question, Sum of the ratios (1/5): (1/6) = (1/5) + (1/6) = (6 + 5)/30 = 11/30 Total share Rajan has = ₹880 × [(1/5) / (11/30)] = 880 × [(1/5) × (30/11)] = 880 × (6/11) = ₹480 Total share kamal has = ₹880 × [(1/6) / (11/30)] = 880 × [(1/6) × (30/11)] = 880 × (5/11) = ₹400

Answer»

From the question,

Sum of the ratios (1/5): (1/6)

= (1/5) + (1/6)

= (6 + 5)/30

= 11/30

Total share Rajan has = ₹880 × [(1/5) / (11/30)]

= 880 × [(1/5) × (30/11)]

= 880 × (6/11)

= ₹480

Total share kamal has = ₹880 × [(1/6) / (11/30)]

= 880 × [(1/6) × (30/11)]

= 880 × (5/11)

= ₹400
