A and B buy a car.A spends 5/11 of car's prices

(a)What is the fraction of B? He paid 25240Rs more than A?
(b)What is car's prices

If they are buying the car together, B must be contributing the other 6/11 of the car's total price, which I will call X.


(6/11)X - (5/11)X = X/11 = 25240 Rs
Solve that equation for X.
X = 11 x (25,240) = ?

I don't see why you wrote "prices" instead of "price". There is only one car.

To solve this problem, we can break it down into the following steps:

Step 1: Set up the equation for the fraction of the car price that A paid.
We know that A paid 5/11 of the car's price. Let's represent the car's price as 'P'. Thus, the fraction of the car's price that A paid can be expressed as (5/11) * P.

Step 2: Set up the equation for the fraction of the car price that B paid.
We are given that B paid 25240 Rs more than A. This means that B paid the amount A paid, plus an additional 25240 Rs. Hence, the fraction of the car's price that B paid can be expressed as [(5/11) * P] + 25240.

Step 3: Find the fraction of B.
We are asked to find the fraction of B. From Step 2, we know that the fraction of the car's price that B paid is [(5/11) * P] + 25240.

Step 4: Simplify the equation for the fraction of B.
To simplify the equation, we can rewrite it as (5/11) * P + 25240, which is the final equation for the fraction of B.

Step 5: Find the car's price.
We need more information to find the car's price directly. If we have the equation for the total amount paid for the car, we can find the car's price. However, the problem does not provide this information, so we cannot determine the car's price.

Therefore, the answer to part (a) is (5/11) * P + 25240, and the answer to part (b) cannot be determined without additional information.
