A sum of money is to be distributed among A, B, C and D in the ratio of 5 : 2 : 4 : 3. If A gets Rs.1000 more than D, what is B's share?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Rs. 1000
Let the shares of A, B, C, and D be 5x, 2x, 4x, and 3x
ATQ
5x = 3x + 1000
2x = 1000
x = 500
So B's share = 2 × 500 = 1000
