Divide Rs.118000 among three persons A, B and C such that the ratio of the shares of A and B is 3:4 and that of B:C is 5:6 ?

A A = 48000 B = 40000 C = 30000

B A = 30000 B = 40000 C = 48000

C A = 30000 B = 48000 C = 40000

D A = 40000 B = 48000 C = 30000

Correct Answer: Option B

Compound ratio of A:B:C
A:B = 3:4
B:C = 5:6
----------
A:B:C = 15:20:24

We can divide Rs.118000 in this ratio.

Share of A = 15/59 x 118000 = 30000

Share of B = 20/59 x 118000 = 40000

Share of C = 24/59 x 118000 = 48000
