The annual salary of A, B, C is in the proportion of 3 : 4 : 5. If C's annual salary is Rs 80000 more than that of A, then B's monthly salary is


A) Rs. 13666.67

B) Rs. 13333.33

C) Rs. 14373.67

D) Rs. 16666.67

Correct Answer:
B) Rs. 13333.33

Description for Correct answer:

Let annual salary of A, B, C respectively be 3x, 4x and 5x.
Then 5x - 3x = 80000
X = 40000

So B's annual salary = 4x = Rs. 160000

Hence, B's monthly salary
=Rs \( \Large \left(\frac{160000}{12}\right)\) = Rs. 13333.33
