Question

Divide Rs 5000 among A, B and C such that A gets 50% of what B gets and B gets 50% of what C gets.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

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. 5000

so, 1/4x + 1/2x + x = 5000

x = Rs.

∴c gets Rs. 2857.2

b gets Rs. 1428.6

and a gets Rs. 714.3
