let share of P, Q & R be 2x,3x & 5x respectively
so from the condition,
2x+5x = 3x + 400
⇒ 7x = 3x + 400
⇒4x = 400
⇒x = 100
⇒5x = 500
so R`s share is Rs. 500
so from the condition,
2x+5x = 3x + 400
⇒ 7x = 3x + 400
⇒4x = 400
⇒x = 100
⇒5x = 500
so R`s share is Rs. 500

"To find out P, Q & R you must be 2x,3x & 5x respectively
Hence 2x+5x = 3x + 400
⇒ 7x = 3x + 400
⇒4x = 400
⇒x = 100
⇒5x = 500
so R`s share is Rs. 500. Therefore the student can collect the answer for the give values with the suitable formula of P and Q.
