      Question

      The ratio of P :Q is 3 : 5 and that of Q : R is 4 : 7.

      If P equals 2400, then what is the value of R?
      A Rs. 7,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs. 6,500 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs. 6,000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs. 6,250 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Given: P : Q = 3 : 5 Q : R = 4 : 7 Since P = 2400 According to P : Q = 3 : 5, 3 units = 2400 So, 1 unit = 2400 Γ· 3 = 800 Therefore, Q = 5 Γ— 800 = 4000 Now, according to Q : R = 4 : 7, 4 units = 4000 So, 1 unit = 4000 Γ· 4 = 1000 Therefore, R = 7 Γ— 1000 = 7000 Hence, the value of R is 7000.
