Question : Directions: INR 2,871 is to be divided among A, B, and C in the ratio of 9 : 11 : 13, respectively. How much more money (in INR) will C get as compared to A?
Option 1: INR 783
Option 2: INR 348
Option 3: INR 402
Option 4: INR 296
Correct Answer: INR 348
Solution :
Given:
INR 2,871 is to be divided among A, B, and C in the ratio of 9 : 11 : 13.
9x + 11x + 13x = 2871
33x = 2871
x = 87
Thus, A = 9 × 87 = 783
B = 11 × 87 = 957
C = 13 × 87 = 1131
Therefore, A – C = 1131 – 783 = 348
So, C gets INR 348 more than A. Hence, the second option is correct.
