B gets 50% of what C gets.​

Answer 1

Answer:

A =x

b = 2x

c = 4x

therefore , dividing Rs7000/-

A = 7000 x 1/7 = Rs 1000/-

B = 7000 x 2/7 = Rs 2000/-

C = 7000 x 4/7 = Rs 4000/-

Answer 2

C gets Rs 4000

50% of C=B

50/100*4000=B

therefore B=Rs 2000

50% of B=A

50/100*2000=A

therefore A=Rs 1000

Verification:

A+B+C 1000+2000+4000
