Download Solution PDFGiven:
Rs. 3,600 is divided among A, B, and C.
A's share is 1/2 of B's share.
B's share is 2/3 of C's share.
Formula used:
Let B's share = x
A's share = 1/2 × x = x/2
B's share = x
C's share = 3/2 × x = 3x/2
Total share of A, B, and C = 3600
Calculation:
x/2 + x + 3x/2 = 3600
⇒ (x/2 + 2x/2 + 3x/2) = 3600
⇒ 6x/2 = 3600
⇒ 3x = 3600
⇒ x = 3600/3
⇒ x = 1200
∴ The correct answer is option (2).
