Answer :
Ratio of ages \(= \frac{15}{12} = \frac{5}{4} \) = 5 : 4
Hence, mother wants to divide Rs 36 in the ratio of 5: 4
Terms of 5: 4 are 5 and 4
Sum of these terms = 5 + 4 = 9
Here Shreya will get \(\frac{5}{9} \) of total money and
Sangeeta will get \(\frac{4}{9} \) of total money
The amount Shreya get = \(\frac{5}{9} × 36 \) = 20
The amount Sangeeta get = \(\frac{4}{9} × 36 \) = 16
Therefore Shreya will get Rs 20 and Sangeeta will get Rs 16
