A sum of Rs. 1360 has been divided among A, B and C such that A gets of what B gets and B gets of what C gets. B’s share is:
[A].
[B].
[C].
[D].
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Let C’s share = Rs. x
| Then, B’s share = Rs. | x | , A’s share = Rs. | 2 | x | x | = Rs. | x | ||
| 4 | 3 | 4 | 6 |
| x | + | x | + x = 1360 | |
| 6 | 4 |
| 17x | = 1360 | |
| 12 |
| x = | 1360 x 12 | = Rs. 960 |
| 17 |
