4x/15 = 2y/5.
x/y = 3/2.
3+2 = 1210.
5 = 1210.
1 = 242.
y = 2y.
2 * 242.
= 484.
x/y = 3/2.
3+2 = 1210.
5 = 1210.
1 = 242.
y = 2y.
2 * 242.
= 484.

Is it necessary to find ratio of A and B? Can we find share of B directly?.

If we want to find the B's part,
Then B's share = Rs.1210 x 2 = Rs. 484.5.
Then B's share = Rs.1210 x 2 = Rs. 484.5.

B's share Rs = (1210 * 2/5) = 484.
A's share Rs = (1210 * 4/15) = 323.
A's share Rs = (1210 * 4/15) = 323.

Why we can not find the value of b directly?
b = (1210 X 2/5) = 484.
b = (1210 X 2/5) = 484.
