If ₹1,368 is divided into two parts in the ratio 5 : 3, then the amount (in ₹) in the larger part is ___________.

Correct option is D

Given:

If ₹1,368 is divided into two parts in the ratio 5 : 3.

Solution:

Ratio 5x : 3x

Sum of the ratio parts = 5x + 3x = 8x

Amount in the larger part = $$\frac{5x}{8x}\times 1368$$

Amount in the larger part = $$5\times 171$$

Amount in the larger part = 855

So, the larger part is ₹855.

Thus, the correct answer is (d).
