jim766 · Answer

good,  so  the 3rd guy wants to pay .....


1st guy had      2nd guy had 
   250/600             350/600          what percent of the total did each  have?

jim766 · Answer

250/600  = .416    times 100 = 41.6%

350/600 = .583     times 100 = 58.3%

jim766 · Answer

since the problem doesnt day how much the 3rd guy was willing to pay...we cant really figure out an amount.....

anonymous · Answer

what about rupees 2

anonymous · Answer

you mean to say that the statement iis incomplete

jim766 · Answer

oh...sorry ..that means he paid  2 rupees. 

2 * .416    =.832 rupees
2 * .583   = 1.076 rupees      

I am not sure if it is possible to divide rupees up like this...
so he might have to just pay each guy 1 rupee

Perhaps I am misinterpreting the question but didn't the first two guys provide all the stuff?  So whatever the third guy paid, The first guy should get 250/600 of it and the second guy should get 350/600 of it.  What do you think?

anonymous · Answer

okay 
and what about rupees 2

mertsj · Answer

anonymous · Answer

mertsj · Answer

So whatever the third guy paid, The first guy should get 250/600 of it and the second guy should get 350/600 of it.
