Question

A sum of 1520 was distributed amoung P,Q,R and S in such a manner that P got as much as Q and R together.Q got 135 more than R and S got as much as R.What amount did p get?​

Answer 1

Answer:

635

Step-by-step explanation:

given s = r

q=r+135

p=2r+135

p+q+r+s=1520

2r+135 + r+135 + r + r = 1520

5r + 270 = 1520

5r = 1250

r = 250

now p= 2r+135

         =2(250)+135

         =500+135

         =635

hence p gets 635
