      Question

      Three friends namely Ram, Laxman and Bharat went out for

      lunch. They divided the entire bill among themselves such that the amount paid by Ram and Laxman together was 40% more than amount paid by Bharat. Amount paid by Laxman was 25% less than that by Ram and amount paid by Bharat was Rs. 80 more than that by Ram. How much was the bill (In Rs.)?
      A Rs. 900 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs. 920 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs. 960 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs. 940 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E Rs. 990 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the amount paid by Bharat be Rs. '100x' So, amount paid by Ram and Laxman together = 100x ├Ч 1.4 = Rs. '140x' Amount paid by Ram = Rs. (100x - 80) So, amount paid by Laxman = 140x - (100x - 80) = Rs. (40x + 80) ATQ; (100x - 80) ├Ч 0.75 = (40x + 80) Or, 75x - 60 = 40x + 80 Or, 140 = 35x So, x = 4 So, total amount of the bill = 100x + 140x = Rs. 240x = 240 ├Ч 4 = Rs. 960
