Question

An amount of money is to be distributed among A, B and C in the ratio 3 : 1 : 5. The difference between B’s and C’s share is Rs. 3600. What is the total of A’s and B’s share?

Answer 1

Let shares of A , B , C be 3x , x , 5x.

Difference between B's and C's = 5x-x

= 4x

Therefore, 4x=3600 (given)

x=3600/4

=900

so, A's share = 3x =3×900 =2700

B's share = x = 900

C's share = 5x = 5×900=4500

Total share of A and B = 2700+900

= 3600

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A:B:C=3:4:7

And profit =30,000

(A+B+C)*x=3+5+7=15x

And then 15X=30,000

X=2000

Know difference between B and C

(B-C)x=7-5=2

Know difference between B and c is

2000*2

Ans 4000
