A sum of Rs. 2130 is to be divided into three parts. The second part is `60%` of the first, and the ratio of the first to third part is `5:7`. What are the parts (in Rs.)?

A

`426, 710, 994`

B

`710, 426, 994`

C

`994, 710, 426`

D

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of dividing Rs. 2130 into three parts with the given conditions, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the Parts Let: - The first part be \( A \) - The second part be \( B \) - The third part be \( C \) ### Step 2: Establish Relationships According to the problem: 1. The second part \( B \) is 60% of the first part \( A \): \[ B = 0.6A \] 2. The ratio of the first part \( A \) to the third part \( C \) is given as \( 5:7 \): \[ \frac{A}{C} = \frac{5}{7} \implies C = \frac{7}{5}A \] ### Step 3: Express Total Sum The total sum of the parts is: \[ A + B + C = 2130 \] ### Step 4: Substitute Relationships Substituting \( B \) and \( C \) in terms of \( A \): \[ A + 0.6A + \frac{7}{5}A = 2130 \] ### Step 5: Combine Like Terms Combine the terms on the left side: \[ A + 0.6A + 1.4A = 2130 \] \[ 3A = 2130 \] ### Step 6: Solve for \( A \) Now, divide both sides by 3: \[ A = \frac{2130}{3} = 710 \] ### Step 7: Calculate \( B \) and \( C \) Now that we have \( A \), we can find \( B \) and \( C \): 1. For \( B \): \[ B = 0.6A = 0.6 \times 710 = 426 \] 2. For \( C \): \[ C = \frac{7}{5}A = \frac{7}{5} \times 710 = 994 \] ### Step 8: Final Parts Thus, the three parts are: - First part \( A = 710 \) - Second part \( B = 426 \) - Third part \( C = 994 \) ### Conclusion The parts are: - First part: Rs. 710 - Second part: Rs. 426 - Third part: Rs. 994
