An amount of ₹741 is divided among three persons in the ratio of 2 : 14 : 10. The difference between the largest and the smallest shares (in ₹) in the distribution is:
Given:
Total amount = ₹741
Ratio = 2 : 14 : 10
Formula Used:
Share of each person = (Individual Ratio ÷ Sum of Ratios) × Total Amount
Difference = Largest Share – Smallest Share
Solution:
Sum of ratios = 2 + 14 + 10 = 26
Value of 1 part = 741 ÷ 26 = 28.5
Smallest share = 2 × 28.5 = ₹57
Largest share = 14 × 28.5 = ₹399
Other share = 10 × 28.5 = ₹285
Difference = 399 – 57 = ₹342
