Question 50
A sum of ₹12,000 is divided between A, B, and C in the ratio 2:3:5. How much does B get?
Solution
If the sum ₹12,000 is divided between A, B, and C in the ratio 2:3:5, then the share of B can be calculated as,
B's share $$=\ \dfrac{3}{2\ +\ 3\ +\ 5}\ \times\ 12000\ =\ \dfrac{3}{10}\times\ 12000\ =\ 3600$$
So, B's share is ₹3,600.
Hence, the correct answer is option B.
