    Question

    If A:B:C = 2:3:8 and (B + C) = 132, then find the

    difference between 'C' and 'A'.
    A 84 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 60 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 36 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 72 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let A = '2x' So, B = (3/2) X 2x = '3x' and C = (8/2) X 2x = '8x' ATQ; 3x + 8x = 132 Or, 11x = 132 So, x = 12 So, C - A = 8x - 2x = 6x = 6 X 12 = 72
