    ~Forming the equation :

    Lets take x as the common multiple of the ratio~

    • 2x
    • 3x

    Together make the sum as Rs. 100

    » 2x + 3x = 100

    » 5x = 100

    » x = 100/5

    » x = 20

    ~ Substituting the values :

    » 2x = 2×20 = 40

    » 3x = 3×20 = 60

    •°• Each students will receive Rs. 40 and Rs. 60.

    Using the equation we have made :

    ★ 2x + 3x = 100

    ★ 40 + 60 = 100

  2. Given:

    • Cash Price = Rs. 100
    • Ratio = 2:3

    What To Find:

    We have to find –

    • How much does each student receive?

    Solution:

    • Forming the equation.

    Let’s take x as the common multiple of the ratio –

    • 2x
    • 3x

    Together make the sum of Rs. 100 –

    • 2x + 3x = 100

    Thus, the equation is –

    • 2x + 3x = 100
    • Solving the equation.

    2x + 3x = 100

    Add the terms in LHS,

    ⇒ 5x = 100

    Take 5 to RHS,

    ⇒ x = 100 ÷ 5

    Divide 100 by 5,

    ⇒ x = 20

    • Substituting the values.

    Here –

    → 2x = 2 × 20 = 40

    → 3x = 3 × 20 = 60

    Final Answer:

    ∴ Thus, each student will receive Rs. 40 and Rs. 60.
