Ratio and Proportion
Suppose x : y = 2 : 5; y : z = 4 : 7. If ₹15,120 is distributed among x, y and z, then the amounts received by x, y and z, respectively, are (in ₹):
If 3.5 : 17.4 :: 14 : x, find the value of x.
When x is added to each of 26, 40, 22 and 34, then the numbers so obtained, in this order, are in proportion. Then, if 4x : y :: y : (7x-6), and y > 0 what is the value of y?
