Rs.395 are divided among A, B and C in such a manner that B

Rs.395 are divided among A, B and C in such a manner that B gets 25 percent more than A and 20 percent more than C. The share of A will be-
ARs.195
BRs.180
CRs.98
DRs.120

Answer is : Rs.120

\(\text{Let A gets Rs x} \)

\(\therefore \text{B gets} = \frac{125x}{100} = \text{Rs }\frac{5x}{4}\)

\(\text{C gets }= \frac{100}{120} \times \frac{5x}{4} = \frac{25}{24}x\)

\(\therefore x + \text{ }\frac{5}{4}x+\text{ }\frac{25}{24}x =395 \)

\(=>\frac{24x+30x+25x}{24} =395\)

\(=>\frac{79}{24}x=395\)

\(x = \frac{395 \times 24}{79}\)

\(x = 120\)
