Correct Answer: Rs. 400
Solution : Let the share of X be $x$. According to the problem, Y's share is Rs. 200 more than X's share. $\therefore$ Y's share is $x + 200$. Y's share is also Rs. 200 less than Z's share. $\therefore$ Z's share = $(x + 200) + 200 = x + 400$ The total amount of Rs.1200 is divided among X, Y, and Z. $⇒x + (x + 200) + (x + 400) = 1200$ $⇒x = 200$ $\therefore$ Y's share $=x + 200 = 200 + 200 = 400$ Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 400.
