    Question

    The average income per day of Ankit, Ramesh, and Mohan is

    Rs. 270. If Ramesh earns Rs. 50 more than Mohan and Ankit earns thrice of what Mohan earns, then what is the daily income of Ramesh?
    A Rs.202 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs.502 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs.302 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs.115 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let Mohan’s daily income be Rs. x

    Then, Ramesh’s income = Rs. (x + 50), Ankit’s income = Rs. 3x

    So, total income = x + (x + 50) + 3x = 5x + 50

    Given average = Rs. 270 ⇒ Total = 270 × 3 = 810

    So, 5x + 50 = 810

    ⇒ 5x = 760

    ⇒ x = Rs. 152

    Ramesh’s income = 152 + 50 = Rs. 202
