Question : A sum of INR 12,000 is divided between A, B, C and D such that the ratio of shares of A and B is 8 : 9, that of B and C is 2 : 3 and that of C and D is 9 : 13. What is the difference between the shares of B and D?
Option 1: INR 1,320
Option 2: INR 2,400
Option 3: INR 2,520
Option 4: INR 2,760
Correct Answer: INR 2,520
Solution : The ratio of shares of A and B = 8 : 9 The ratio of shares of B and C = 2 : 3 The ratio of shares of C and D = 9 : 13 Ratio of shares of A, B, C and D = 16 : 18 : 27 : 39 Sum = INR 12,000 Difference between the shares of B and D = $\frac{39-18}{16+18+27+39}×12000$ = $\frac{21}{100}×12000$ = INR 2,520 Hence, the correct answer is INR 2,520.
