Question

an amount of money is to be divided among A B and C in the ratio 3:5:9 respectively. If the difference between A's share and C's share is three times that of between B's and A's. What was the total amount for distribution?

Answer 1

Morning Hope it helps you:-)

Let the everyone’s share be

3x, 5x, 9x and 13x for A, B, C and D respectively

9x=3x+2412 …………..i

6x=2412

x=402

Now we can get everyone’s share

A=3x=1206

B=5x=2010

C=9x=3618

D=13x=5226

Total amount of B & D

=2010+5226

=7236

Any doubt ask it in comment box.
