By the given conditions, we can say
a+b+c+d = 750 eq. 1
a = b+c
c= d
b = c +125
so, putting these values in eq. 1, we get
b+c+c+125+c+c = 750
again putting the value of b in this eq.
c+125 +c+c+125+c+c = 750
5c + 250 = 750
5c = 500
c= 100
so, b will be 225, d will be 100 and a will be 325
a+b+c+d = 750 eq. 1
a = b+c
c= d
b = c +125
so, putting these values in eq. 1, we get
b+c+c+125+c+c = 750
again putting the value of b in this eq.
c+125 +c+c+125+c+c = 750
5c + 250 = 750
5c = 500
c= 100
so, b will be 225, d will be 100 and a will be 325

Step-by-step explanation:
Let D's share = Rs. x. Then, C's share = Rs. x
B's share = Rs. (x + 125). A's share = Rs. ( x + x + 125)
= Rs. (2x + 125)
Therefore, (2x + 125) + (x + 125) + x + x = 750
5x = 500
x = 100
Hence, A's share = 2x + 125 = Rs. ( 2 * 100 + 125)
= Rs. 325
