Correct Answer: INR 100
Solution : Let the shares of A, B, and C as $3x, 2x$, and $5x$, respectively. The share of C is INR 300 more than B. So, $5x = 2x + 300$ ⇒ $3x = 300$ ⇒ $x = 100$ Therefore, the shares of A, B, and C are 300, 200, and 500, respectively. So, A will get INR 100 more than B. Hence, the correct answer is INR 100.
