Question

Divide Rs.570 between X,Y and Z such that Y may receive Rs.45 more than X, and Z may receive Rs.30 more than Y

Answer 1

Answer:

Let

X = x

because y gets 45 more than X

So,

Y = x+45

Respectively Z get 30 more than Y

So, Z = x+45+30 = x+75

Finally,

x+x+45+x+75 = 570

3x+120 = 570

3x = 570-120

3x = 450

x = 150

Because,

X = x

Then

X = 150

Y = x+45

= 150+45

=195

Z = x+75

= 150+75

= 225
