Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. ₹ 792.
Given:
Rohit and Manoj together have ₹ 1,320.
If 10/21 of Rohit's amount equals to 5/7 of Manoj's amount
Calculations:
Let the amount with rohit and manoj be R and M.
According to the question,
⇒ (10/21) × R = (5/7) × M
⇒ R/M = 3/2
Total amount = 3x + 2x = 5x
⇒ 5x = 1320
⇒ x = 264
Amount with rohit = 264 × 3 = 792
