Question
Rs.1300 is divided among A,B and C so that A receives half as much as B and B receives half as much as C.What will be the C's share?743642650None of these
Solution
Let's denote the amount of money that A, B, and C receive as a, b, and c respectively.
From the problem, we know that:
a = 1/2 * b, b = 1/2 * c.
We also know that the total amount of money is Rs.1300, so:
a + b + c = 1300.
Substituting the first two equations into the third equation, we get:
1/2 * b + b + 2 * b = 1300, which simplifies to 7/2 * b = 1300.
Solving for b, we find that b = 1300 * 2/7 = 371.43.
Substituting b = 371.43 into the equation b = 1/2 * c, we find that c = 2 * b = 2 * 371.43 = 742.86.
So, C's share is approximately Rs.743. This is rounded to the nearest whole number as money cannot be divided into fractions of a rupee.
