A:B:C:D = 5:2:4:3
LET A=5000, B=2000 C=4000 D=3000
HERE C=4000 AND D= 3000 SO, C IS GETTING 1000 MORE THAN D
(CONDITION SATISFIED)
NATURALLY A=5000 AND B= 2000
SO, B'S SHARE =2000

@Balaji: x is just considered as amount is given in propertion. x is a variable to calculate to find the answer

@Ramesh
I guess your doubt has not been cleared properly. So, i'll give it a try. For example, if the money is divided between A and B in the ratio 3:5;
then, A:B=3:5.
We can also write; A/B=3/5 which means we can exchange B and 3 and rewrite as A/3=B/5. Then if A/3=B/5=x here x is a constant. Then we can write A=3x and B=5x right?
And a proportion is for example A:B=C:D which states that two ratios are equal.
x = 1000.
B's share = Rs. 2x = Rs. (2 x 1000) = Rs. 2000.
