Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : Rs. 484 Given - A : C = 2 : 1, A : B = 3 : 2 Solution - Let the amount of B be PB. ⇒ A : C = 2 : 1, A : B = 3 : 2 ⇒ A : B : C = (2 × 3) : (2 × 2) : (1 × 3) ⇒ A : B : C = 6 : 4 : 3 ⇒ The amount of B = PB = (4/13) × 1573 = Rs. 484 ∴ the amount received by B = Rs. 484 |
