Answer:
Rs.8000
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
a certain sum was divided among A, B, C in the ratio 7:5:4 And B got 500 more than C
Let
Amount received by A = 7x
Amount received by B = 5x
Amount received by C = 4x
As B got 500 more than C
5x = 4x + 500
5x - 4x = 500
X = 500
The total sum divided among them is
= 7x + 5x + 4x
=16x
= 16(500)
8000
The total sum divided among A, B, C is 8000
