Question

Carlo, Jace, and Christopher are going to share P32,000. Carlo will receive one-half of what Jace is going to receive, while Jace will get 3/4 of what Christopher is going to get. How much will each one receives?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Carlo will get 5,647.05 rupees

Jace will get 11,294.1 rupees

Christopher will get 15,058.8 rupees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Christopher be getting x rupees

So, Jace will receive = 3x/4 rupees

and Carlo will receive = 1/2 × 3x/4 = 3x/8 rupees

Now, x + 3x/4 + 3x/8 = 32,000

=> (8x + 6x + 3x)/8 = 32,000 [ By taking LCM ]

=> 17x = 32,000 × 8

=> x = 2,56,000/17 = 15,058.8 rupees
