B's share is equal to​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

A/B = 3/5

⇒ 5A = 3B

⇒ B = 5/3 A

∴ B = 5/3 A

B/C = 3/5

⇒ 5B = 3C

⇒C = 5/3B = 5/3 (5/3 A) = 25/9 A

∴ C = 25/9 A

C/D = 3/5

⇒ 5C = 3D

⇒ D = 5/3C = 5/3 (25/9 A) = 125/27 A

∴ D = 125/27 A

We know that,

A+B+C+D = 136000

A + 5/3 A + 25/9 A + 125/27 A = 136000

see image

A = 13,500

B = 5/3A = 5/3*13,500 = 22,500

B's Share = 22,500
