Question

A total amount of 1560 is to be divided among A, B and C such that A gets 50% of what B gets and B gets 20% of what C gets. How much will each of them get?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let C gets Rs.x

Then, B gets = 20/ 100 × x = x / 5 Rs

Then A gets = 50 / 100 + x/5 Rs

Therefore

x +x /5 + x/10 = 10 + 2 + 1 / 10 Rs 1560

13x /10 = 1560

13 x = 15600

x = 1200 Rs

Hence C gets Rs 1200

B gets Rs 240

A gets Rs 120
