Rs. 1,900 is divided among 4 boys, 5 girls, and 6 women, such that the shares of a boy, a girl, and a woman are in the ratio 9 : 8 : 4. What is the share of a girl?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. Rs. 152.
Calculations:
The ratio of the share of all boys, girls, and women = 4 × 9 : 5 × 8 : 6 × 4
= 36 : 40 : 24 = 9 : 10 : 6
Total share of all girls = 1900 × 10/25 = Rs. 760
The share of a girl = 760/5 = Rs. 152
