components A, B, C and D
which have a ratio of 3:4:5:6 re#spectively. If there are respective
changes in the cost of +10%,
–20%, –30% and +40%, then
what would be the percentage

47. Goutam invests Rs. 10,000 in
some shares in the ratio 2:3:5
which pay dividents of 10%,
25% and 20% (on his invest#ment) for that year respectively.
Find the divident income.
Sol. Ratio of shares = 2x : 3x : 5x
According to question,
(2x + 3x + 5x) = 10,000
10x = 10,000
Ist share = 2×1000 = 2000
