Question

Please Help me solve,
Three Families P, Q, R
They shares 480kg of Rice, Q receive Twice as much rice as P and R receive Half as much as Q. How much rice Q gets? Thank You with steps will help

Answer 1

let the amount of rice P get be x
given that Q receives 2x
and R receives 2x/2=x

total =x+2x+x=4x=480kg
rice Q gets is 2x
=> 4x=480kg
=> 2x=240 kg

Answer 2

total quantity of rice = 480 kg
let the rice received by p = x
the rice received by q = 2x
the rice received by r = 1/2×2x=x
A.T.Q
x+2x+x=480
4x=480
x=480/4
x=120
so rice given to p and r = 120
and rice given to q = 2x = 2× 120=240
