1.	a sum of rs 817 is divided among A ,B and C see such that A recieves 25% more than B and B recieves 25% less than C. what is A's share in the amount?
Answer» Answer: Distribution will be as below, A will get Rs. 285 B will get Rs. 228 C will get Rs. 304 Let us MAKE it simple and easy to UNDERSTAND that how it was CALCULATED: Let us assume that C will get Rs. X Hence, B will get 25% Less than C’s Share i.e. Rs. 0.75 X Also, A will get 25% More than B’s Share i.e. Rs. 0.75 X + ( 25% of 0.75 X) therefore A will get 0.75 X + 0.1875 X = Rs. 0.9375 X Now, we know that total amount was Rs. 817. So, Adding all 3 SHARES we get, Rs. ( X + 0.75 X + 0.9375 X) Rs. 2.6875 X = 817 therefore value of X will be Rs. 817 DIVIDED by 2.6875 so, X = Rs. 304 So, C’ share = X = Rs. 304 Putting X value in B’s Share = 0.75 X = 0.75 ( 304) = Rs. 228 Substituting X value in A’s Share = 0.9375 X = 0.9375 (304) = 285. hope so i was able to make it very simple as much as possible.

Answer:

Distribution will be as below,

A will get Rs. 285

B will get Rs. 228

C will get Rs. 304

Let us MAKE it simple and easy to UNDERSTAND that how it was CALCULATED:

Let us assume that C will get Rs. X

Hence, B will get 25% Less than C’s Share i.e. Rs. 0.75 X

Also, A will get 25% More than B’s Share i.e. Rs. 0.75 X + ( 25% of 0.75 X)

therefore A will get 0.75 X + 0.1875 X = Rs. 0.9375 X

Now, we know that total amount was Rs. 817.

So, Adding all 3 SHARES we get,

Rs. ( X + 0.75 X + 0.9375 X)

Rs. 2.6875 X = 817

therefore value of X will be Rs. 817 DIVIDED by 2.6875

so, X = Rs. 304

So, C’ share = X = Rs. 304

Putting X value in B’s Share = 0.75 X = 0.75 ( 304) = Rs. 228

Substituting X value in A’s Share = 0.9375 X = 0.9375 (304) = 285.

hope so i was able to make it very simple as much as possible.
