      Question

      Rs. 5600 is divided among 'X', 'Y', 'Z', and 'W' in the

      ratio 4:6:3:7. Then, 'Y' gives 60% of the average of 'X' and 'W’s' amount to 'Z'. Find the average amount currently with 'X' and 'Z'.
      A Rs.1442 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs.1581 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.1385 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs.1450 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Initial amount with 'X' = 5600 Γ— (4/20) = Rs. 1120

      Initial amount with 'Z' = 5600 Γ— (3/20) = Rs. 840

      Initial amount with 'W' = 5600 Γ— (7/20) = Rs. 1960

      Amount given by 'Y' to 'Z' = {(1120 + 1960) Γ· 2} Γ— 0.60 = 1540 Γ— 0.60 = Rs. 924

      Final amount with 'Z' = 840 + 924 = Rs. 1764

      Therefore, required average = (1120 + 1764) Γ· 2 = Rs. 1442
