Answer 1

Answer : Rs. 5472.97

Solution :
_________

Given that : A received 25% more than B and B received 20% more than C

Let, C received x

Then B received :

$x \times \frac{(100 + 20)}{100} \\ \\ = > x \times \frac{120}{100} \\ \\ = > 1.2x$

And A received :


$1.2x \times \frac{(100 + 25)}{100} \\ \\ = > 1.2x \times \frac{125}{100} \\ \\ = > 1.2x \times 1.25 = 1.5x$

Now, according to the question :


$1.5x + 1.2x + x = 13500 \\ \\ = > 3.7x = 13500 \\ \\ = > x = \frac{13500}{3.7}$

A received :

$\frac{13500}{3.7} \times 1.5 \\ \\ = 5472.97$


So, A received Rs. 5472.97
