A sum of Rs 731 is divided among A, B and C such that 'A' receive 25% more than 'B' and 'B' receive 25% less than 'C'. What is C's share in the amount?
- Rs. 172
- Rs. 200
- Rs. 262
- Rs. 258
- None of these
Answer: Option E
A + B + C = 731 ..... (i)
A = 1.25B, gives A = 1.25 * 0.75 C = 0.9375 C....(ii)
B = 0.75C....(iii)
Using (ii) and (iii) in (i) we get
0.9375C + 0.75C + C = 731, gives C = 272.
So option E is the answer.
A + B + C = 731 ..... (i)
A = 1.25B, gives A = 1.25 * 0.75 C = 0.9375 C....(ii)
B = 0.75C....(iii)
Using (ii) and (iii) in (i) we get
0.9375C + 0.75C + C = 731, gives C = 272.
So option E is the answer.
