9. Neema divides the amount of 25,000 between Reeta and Meeta in the ratio 3:2.

- How much does Meeta get?
- Also, find the difference in the amounts they receive.



Answer :

Sure! Let's solve this problem step-by-step.

1. Identify the total amount and the ratio:
- Total amount to be divided: 25,000
- Ratio in which the amount should be divided: 3 (Reeta) : 2 (Meeta)

2. Calculate the total parts:
- Total parts in the ratio = 3 (Reeta's parts) + 2 (Meeta's parts) = 5 parts

3. Determine the share for each part:
- Since the total amount is 25,000 and there are 5 parts in total, each part will be:
[tex]\[ \text{Amount per part} = \frac{25000}{5} = 5000 \][/tex]

4. Calculate Meeta's share:
- Meeta gets 2 parts of the total:
[tex]\[ \text{Meeta's share} = 2 \times 5000 = 10000 \][/tex]

5. Calculate Reeta's share:
- Reeta gets 3 parts of the total:
[tex]\[ \text{Reeta's share} = 3 \times 5000 = 15000 \][/tex]

6. Find the difference between Reeta's and Meeta's shares:
- The difference between Reeta's share and Meeta's share is:
[tex]\[ \text{Difference} = 15000 - 10000 = 5000 \][/tex]

So, Meeta gets 10,000 and the difference between the amounts Reeta and Meeta get is 5,000.
