If 3/5 of x is equal to 4/9 of y, then what is the ratio of x and y?

 

let ratio be x.

Hence no. of coins be 5x ,9x , 4x respectively

Now given total amount = Rs.206

=> (.50)(5x) + (.25)(9x) + (.10)(4x) = 206

we get x = 40

=> No. of 50p coins = 200

=> No. of 25p coins = 360

=> No. of 10p coins = 160

Compounded Ratio :: When we compound two or more ratio's with each other through product or multiplication, the result is simply a compound ratio.

Thus, the product of two or more ratios; i.e, ab:cd is a ratio compounded of the simple ratios a:c and b:d.

Required compounded ratio = (2/3 x 6/11 x 11/2) = 2/1. 

3A = 4B = 7C = k,Then A = k/3, B = k/4 and C= k/7.

A : B : C = k/3 : k/4 : k/7 = 28:21 :12.

Cs share = Rs. [427 x (12/61)] = Rs. 84

Let the number of boys and girls be 8x and 5x.
Total number of students = 13x = 13 * 32 = 416.

Let the salaries of A, B, C be x, 2x and 3x respectively.

Then,2x + 3x = 6000  => x = 1200.

A's salary = Rs. 1200, B's salary = Rs. 2400, and Cs salary Rs. 3600.
Excess of C's salary over A's=[ (2400 /1200) x 100] = 200%.

(x * 5) = (0.75 *8)

X=6/5 = 1.20

Let the quantity of alcohol and water be 4x liters and 3x liters respectively. Then,

(4x)/(3x+5) = 4/5

=> 20x = 4(3x+5) 

=> x = 2.5 

Quantity of alcohol = (4 * 2.5) liters = 10 liters.

Rs.782*623

Given ratio =12:23:34= 6:8:9

1st part = Rs.782*623 = Rs. 204
