Question
Rs. 10400 was divided among A, B and C in the ratio
2:3:3. B kept Rs. 1200 for himself, gave Rs. 500 to his mother and divided the remaining money among his two sisters in the ratio 11:9. Then one of his sisters received:Solution
B’s share = Rs. 10400 × (3/8) = Rs. 3900 Money distributed between the two sisters, => Rs. [3900 – (1200 + 500)] = Rs. 2200 First sister’s share = Rs. 2200 × (11/20) = Rs. 1210 Second sister’s share = Rs. 2200 × (9/20) = Rs. 990
