Rs 5625 is divided among A,B and C so that A may received 1 / 2 as much as B and C together receive and B received 1 / 4 of what A and C together receive. The share of A is more than that of B by
A) Rs. 750
B) Rs. 775
C) Rs. 1500
D) Rs. 1600
Correct Answer:
A) Rs. 750
Description for Correct answer:
B + C = 2A
A + B + C = 3A
3A = 5625
A = 1875
Again, B = \( \Large\frac{1}{4}(A + C) \)
A + C = 4B
A + B + C = 5B
5B = 5625
B = 1125
Thus A's share is more than that of B
= Rs(1875 - 1125)
= Rs. 750
