Given Ratio = 6 : 16
Let electrcity bill = 6x
telephone bill = 16x
difference b/w both = 10x
it is given that this difference is 800.
so 10x = 800
x = 80
So electricity bill = 480
Telephone bill = 1280

Electricity Bill : Telephone Bill :: 6 : 16
Let Bill paid for Electricity = 6k
& Bill paid for Telephone = 16k
As given, Telephone Bill - Electricity Bill = 800/- => 16k - 6k = 800/- => 10k = 800/- => k = 80/-
