      Question

      Three values P, Q, and R are such that P is one-third of Q

      and R is the average of P and Q. If the total of all three values is 588, find the second largest value among them.
      A 157 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 126 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 196 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 105 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,
      Let the value of Q be 3x

      So, value of P = 3x/3 = x

      So, value of R = (x + 3x)/2 = 4x/2 = 2x

      ATQ:

      x + 3x + 2x = 588

      Or, 6x = 588

      Or, x = 98

      So, the second highest number = R = 2x = 2 × 98 = 196
