Question

Divide ₹7000 among A, B and C such that A gets 50 percent of what B gets and B gets 50 percent C gets.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let c gets Rs. x

then ,

b gets 50% of c =50/100 * x =1/2x

and a gets 50% of b =50/100 * 1/2x =1/4x

now, Rs. of a + Rs. of b + Rs. of c = Rs. 7000

so, 1/4x + 1/2x + x = 7000

x = Rs. 4000

∴c gets Rs. 4000

b gets Rs. 2000

and a gets Rs. 1000

Answer 2

Answer:

Let C gets X

So B would get 50/100 of X or X/2

and A would get 50/100 of B or 1/2 × X/2 = x/4

Now total sum =7000

so, x+x/2+x/4 = 7000

or, (4x+2x+x)/4 =7000

or, 7x=7000×4

or x= 7000×4/7= 4000/=

C gets 4000/=

B gets x/2= 4000/2= 2000/=

A gets x/4= 4000/4=1000/=
