A man distributed his whole money between his three daughters Sakshi, Priya and Suhani in the ratio of 7 : 11 : 9 respectively. If the total amount the man had was Rs. 8910, then find the difference between the share of Priya and Suhani.
ARs. 550
BRs. 630
CRs. 660
DRs. 690

correct answer is: option a [Rs. 660]
Explanation: Let the shares of Sakshi, Priya, and Suhani be \(7x\), \(11x\), and \(9x\) respectively.
The total amount is Rs. 8910, so we have: \(7x + 11x + 9x = 8910\)
\(27x = 8910\)
\(x = \frac{8910}{27} = 330\)
Priya's share = \(11x = 11 \times 330 = 3630\)
Suhani's share = \(9x = 9 \times 330 = 2970\)
The difference between Priya's and Suhani's share is \(3630 - 2970 = 660\)
