Question
How will Rs 31500 be shared between A, B, and C; if A gets the double of what B gets, and B gets the double of what C gets?
Solution
Let the share of C = 1
Share of B = double of C = 2 × 1 = 2
Share of A = double of B = 2 × 2 = 4
Given ratio (A : B : C) = 4 : 2 : 1
Sum of ratio = 4 + 2 + 1 = 7
A's share = `4/7xx"Rs 31500"`
= 4 × Rs 4500 = Rs = 18000
B's share = `2/7xx"Rs 31500"`
= 2 × Rs 4500 = Rs 9000
C's share = `1/7xx"Rs 31500"`
= 1 × Rs 4500 = Rs = 4500
