      Question

      Four friends ('P', 'Q', 'R', and

      'S') went out for dinner and received a bill of Rs. 1,500. They divided it such that 'P' paid (1/4)th of what the other three paid together. 'Q' paid 10% less than the amount paid by 'P'. 'R' and 'S' paid equal amounts, which were Rs. 50 more than the amount paid by 'P'. Find the amount paid by 'Q'.
      A Rs.500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs.120 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.270 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs.220 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let the amount paid by 'P' be Rs. x. Amount paid by 'Q', 'R', and 'S' together = 4x. Total amount = 5x = 1500, So, x = 300. Amount paid by 'Q' = 300 × 0.9 = Rs.270.
