A) 64 B) 76 C) 84 D) 98

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

Given total sum = Rs. 427

And given that 3 times A’s share, 4 times B’s share and 7 times C’s share are all equal.

=> 3A = 4B = 7C

But given

=> A + B + C = 427

Now express A and B in terms of C i.e

=> (7C/3) + (7C/4) + C = 427

=> C = 84
