Question

Divide ` 2142 among A, B and C such that the share of A is double that of B and C gets half of the share of B.
please answer

Answer 1

Answer: A=1224; B=712; C=306

Step-by-step explanation: Let share of B be 2x

Then the share of A will be 4x and of C will be x

According to the question, 4x+2x+x= 2142

7x = 2142

x= 306

Therefore; A's share= 4 X 306= 1224

B's share= 2 X 306= 712

C's share= 306
