Question

A and B together have rs 158. C has rs 101 less than what A and B has rs 23 more than C. the amount of A is

Answer 1

given initially
a+b = 158 ......i
c = a-101 and b = c+23
sub c value in b = c+23 we get
b = a -101+23
a-b = 78 . ......ii
by i and ii we get
a=118,b = 40
hence this is the answer

Answer 2

Answer:

$(b + c) \: do \: \frac{8}{23} of \: the \: work \\ a \: does \: \: 1 - \frac{8}{23} - \frac{15}{23} of \: \:the \: work \: </p><p>ratio \: of \: \: a \: \: share \: to \: (b + c) \: share \: = \frac{15}{23} \\ a \: share = \: \frac{15}{23 \: \times \: rs. \: 529 = rs.345}$.
