x = 60

3x = 3 × 60 = 180

5x = 5 × 60 = 300

7x = 7 × 60 = 420

Answer 2

A = Rs. 180

B = Rs. 300

C = Rs. 420

B's Share = 5/15

C's Share = 7/15

To find :

Amount received by each

Solution :

A's Share = 3/15

Amount of A =

⇒ 3/15 × 900

⇒ 180

Amount of A = Rs. 180

B's Share = 5/15

Amount of B =

⇒ 5/15 × 900

⇒ 300

Amount of B = Rs. 300

C's Share = 7/15

Amount of C =

⇒ 7/15 × 900

⇒ 420

Amount of C = Rs. 420

180 + 300 + 420 = 900

∴ A = Rs. 180

B = Rs. 300

C = Rs. 420
