Question 4

Three persons A, B and C have different amounts of rupees with them. If C takes ₹11 from A, C will have equal amount as B has. B and C together have total ₹111. How many rupees does C have?

Solution

Given, B and C together have total ₹111

$$=$$> B + C = 111 .................(1)

If C takes ₹11 from A, C will have equal amount as B

$$=$$> C + 11 = B

Substituting B = C + 11 in equation (1)

$$=$$> C + 11 + C = 111

$$=$$> 2C = 100

$$=$$> C = 50

$$\therefore\ $$C has ₹50

Hence, the correct answer is Option C
