Question

Zain, Hamid and Harris share 2560 Rs.If Hamid's share is four times of Zain while Harris share is 1/3 of Hamid. What is Zain's share thn?

Answer 1

Let Zain's share be Rs x.

Since, Hamid's share is four times of Zain.

So, Hamid's share = $4 \times x$ = 4x

Harris share is 1/3 of Hamid share.

Harris's share = $\frac{1}{3} \times 4x$ = $\frac{4x}{3}$

There total share is Rs 2560.

So, $x + 4x + \frac{4x}{3} = 2560$

LCM is 3

So, $\frac{3x+12x+4x}{3} = 2560$

$\frac{19x}{3} = 2560$

x = 404.2

So, Zain's share = x = Rs 404.2
