Question
The salaries of Amit and Binit are in the ratio of 5:6. Find the salary of Amit.1. Binit’s Salary is 12000.2. The sum of Amit’s and Binit’s salary is 22,000.Statement 1 alone sufficientStatement 2 alone sufficientBoth statements put together are sufficientBoth statements put even together are not sufficientEither of the statements taken individually is sufficient in answering the problem question
Solution
To solve this problem, we can use either of the statements individually.
-
If we use Statement 1, we know that Binit's salary is 12000. Since the ratio of Amit's salary to Binit's salary is 5:6, we can find Amit's salary by setting up the proportion 5/6 = x/12000, where x is Amit's salary. Solving for x gives us x = (5/6)*12000 = 10000. So, Amit's salary is 10000.
-
If we use Statement 2, we know that the sum of Amit's and Binit's salaries is 22000. Since the ratio of Amit's salary to Binit's salary is 5:6, we can find Amit's salary by setting up the equation 5x + 6x = 22000, where x is the common multiplier. Solving for x gives us x = 22000/11 = 2000. So, Amit's salary is 5*2000 = 10000.
Therefore, either of the statements taken individually is sufficient in answering the problem question.
