Instructions

Each of these has a question folowed by two statements numbered I and II.

Question 94

Total amount of 38500 was distributed among Anuj, Sonam and Depak. How much does each get?

I. Anuj gets $$\frac{2}{9}$$ of what the other two together get.

II. Sonam gets $$\frac{3}{11}$$ of what the other two together get.

Solution

From the given question, Anuj(A) + Sonam(S) + Depak(D) = 38,500

From (i), A = $$\frac{2}{9}(S + D)$$

A = $$\frac{2}{9}(38,500 - A)$$

From the above equation we can find the amount received by Anuj

From (ii), S = $$\frac{3}{11}(A + D)$$

S = $$\frac{3}{11}(38,500 - S)$$

From the above equation we can find the amount received by Sonam

Now from the given question we can find the amount received by Depak also. So both the statements are required to answer the question.

Hence, option C is the correct answer.
