      Question

      Rs. 1080 was to be distributed between P, Q, and R in

      the ratio (1/4):(1/6):(1/3), but due to a mistake, it was distributed in the ratio 10:8:6. How much extra did Q receive?
      A Rs.100 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Rs.120 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Rs.150 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Rs.175 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      L.C.M of 4, 6 and 3 = 12

      Converted ratio = (3:2:4)

      Total parts = 3 + 2 + 4 = 9

      Correct share of Q = 1080 Γ— (2/9) = Rs. 240

      Incorrect share of Q = 1080 Γ— (8/24) = Rs. 360

      Excess amount = Rs. 360 – Rs. 240 = Rs. 120
