Question

Some amount is divided among A, B, C and
D such that A/B = B/C = C/D = 3/4. If B gets
Rs. 308 less than D, find the individual amount
with A, B, C and D.​

Answer 1

Answer:

A- Rs. 297, B= Rs. 396, C- Rs. 528, D- Rs. 704

Step-by-step explanation:

A/B = B/C = C/D = 3/4

B=3/4*3/4D= 9/16 D --->(1)

We also have:

D-B=308

So, considering (1), we have:

16B=9D

D=B+308

16B=9*(B+308)

16B=9B+2772

7B=2772

B=2772/7

B= Rs. 396

D=B+308= Rs. 704

C=704*3/4= Rs. 528

A=396*3/4= Rs. 297
