1.	A sum of 300 is divided amongP, Q and R in such a way that Q gets30 more than P and R gets 60 morethan Q. Then, ratio of their shares isSSC CGL 2013](a) 2:3:5(c) 2: 5: 3(b) 3:2: 5(d) 5: 3:2
Answer» Let the share of P = X Then, Q's share = x + 30 and R's share = (x + 30) + 60 = x+90 Sum of money with P, Q and R=300 x+x+30+x+90=300 => 3x+120 =300x= 60required ratio 60:(60+30):(60+90)2:3:5 thx

Answer»

Let the share of P = X

Then, Q's share = x + 30

and R's share = (x + 30) + 60 = x+90

Sum of money with P, Q and R=300

x+x+30+x+90=300

=> 3x+120 =300x= 60required ratio 60:(60+30):(60+90)2:3:5

thx
