    A 80 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 160 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 140 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 120 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    A : B = 100 : 90,ย  A : C = 100 : 70 B/C = (B/Aย ร—ย  A/C) B/C = 90/100ย ร—ย  100/70 B/C = 90/70 = 9:7 In a game if B gets 180 points B/C = 9/7 = (9ย ร—ย  20)ย รท ย (7ย ร—ย  20) = 180/140 C gets 140 points Alternate method: A:B:Cย  = 100 : 90:70 So now B is 180 , hence ratio of B:C = 90: 70 = 180:x So xย  = 140
