Question

A total amount of ruppes 1560 is to be divided among A,B,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

I will be glad to assist you, let's start,

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
And that's the answer.
