The value of q is Rs. 300

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that p and q together get the thrice as much as r and s together.

(p + q) = 3(r + s) .....(1)

Distributed Rs 500.

p+q+r+s=500

From equation 1.

3(r+s)+(r+s)=500

r+s=125

Thus, the share of r+s = 125 and the share of p+q = 500-125=375

q gets four times of what r gets and r gets 1.5 times as much as s.

Now, r gets 1.5 times as much as s

r + s = 125

1.5 s + s = 125

2.5 s = 125

Share of s = Rs. 50

Share of r = 1.5×50 = Rs. 75

q gets four times of what r gets

Share of q = 75 × 4 = Rs. 300

Hence, the value of q is Rs. 300
