Question

A total amount of rupees 1560 is to be divided among a,b,c such that aGets 50% of what b gets and b gets 20%of what c gets . How much will each of them will get

Answer 1

Answer:

a=120, b=240, c=1200

Step-by-step explanation:

if c gets 100 then b gets 20 and a 10 for 130rupees

a:b:c=1:2:10

a=(1/13)*1560=120

b=(2/13)*1560=240

c=(10/13)*1560=1200

Answer 2

Answer:

C = 1200 , B = 240 , A = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount to be distributed - Rs.1560

Let C be - x

Therefore, B will be - 20/100*x = 1/5*x

Hence, A will also be - 50/100*1/5*x = 1/10*x

Then, total will be -

x + (1/5*x) + (1/10*) = 1560

or, (10x + 2x + x)/10 = 1560

or, 13x = 15600

or, x = 15600/13

or, x = 1200

So, we get -

A = 1/10*1200 = Rs. 120

B = 1/5*1200 = Rs. 240

C = Rs. 1200
