Question
A total of Rs. 6,239 is divided among three
individuals—'A,' 'B,' and 'C.' The sum allocated to 'C' is two-thirds of what 'B' receives, and 'A' gets an amount equal to one-third of what 'C' is given. Determine the sum received by 'B'.Solution
Let the amount received by 'C' be Rs. 6x Therefore, amount received by 'A' = (6x/3) = Rs. 2x Amount received by 'B' = 6x X (3/2) = Rs. 9x According to the question, 6x + 2x + 9x = 6239 Or, 17x = 6239 Or, x = (6239/17) = 367 Therefore, Amount received by 'B' = 9x = Rs. 3,303 Hence, option b.
