Question
Some amount was divided among A, B and C in the ratio
4:5:8. If the share of A is 32 less than share of C, then find the 1/4th of total amount (in Rs).Solution
A : B : C = 4 : 5 : 8 A : B : C = 4x : 5x : 8x => A = C – 32 => 4x = 8x – 32 => x = 8 A + B + C = 4x + 5x + 8x = 17x = 17 × 8 = 136 => 1/4 × 136 = 34
