Question
An amount of 62 is divided among A, B and C such that A
gets ₹12 more than B and B gets ₹10 more than C. What is the ratio of their share?Solution
ATQ, Let C’s share = ₹x B gets ₹10 more, so B = ₹(x + 10) A gets ₹12 more than B, so A = ₹(x + 22) Total amount is ₹62, So,(x+22)+(x+10)+x=62 On simplifying, we get: 3x+32=62 3x=30 ⇒ x=10 Now, their shares: C = ₹10, B = ₹20, A = ₹32 Ratio A : B : C = 32:20:10 = 16:10:5 Hence, the ratio of their share is 16:10:5.
