SSC CGL - 19 April 2022 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q98

An amount of ₹1,003 is to be distributed among A, B, and C in the ratio of 11 : 23 : 25. How many rupees would B get more than A?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. ₹204.

Total amount = 1003

Ratio of A : B : C = 11 : 23 : 25

Share of A, B, and C = 11x, 23x, and 25x

11x + 23x + 25x = 1003

⇒ 59x = 1003 ⇒ x =17

Share of B - A = 23x - 11x = 12x = 12 × 17 = 204
