Correct Answer: A will bring Rs 10,000 , B brings Rs 35,000 and C withdrawn 3000


Solution : Answer = A will bring Rs 10,000 , B brings Rs 35,000 and C withdrawn 3000

A = $\frac{3}{6} - \frac{1}{8} of \frac{2}{16} = \frac{3}{6}-\frac{2}{16} = \frac{48-12}{96} = \frac{36}{96}\times 2,40,000 = 90,000$

B = $\frac{2}{6} - \frac{1}{16} = \frac{32-6}{96} = \frac{26}{96}\times 2,40,000 = 65,000$

C = $\frac{1}{6} - \frac{1}{16} = \frac{16-6}{96} = \frac{10}{96}\times 2,40,000 = 25,000$

D =  \frac{1}{6}\times 2,40,000 = 60,000$
