      Solution

      Let share of β€˜B’ = Rs. 80x Share of β€˜A’ = 80x + {25% of 80x} = Rs. 100x Share of β€˜C’ = (8/5) Γ— 100x = Rs. 160x Total amount with β€˜A’, β€˜B’ and β€˜C’, together = 3400 Γ— 3 = Rs. 10200 So, 100x + 80x + 160x = 10200 Or, 340x = 10200 Or, x = 30 So, share of β€˜B’ = 80x = 80 Γ— 30 = Rs. 2400
