Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven:
Total amount = Rs. 53
A = B + 7
B = C + 8
Formula Used:
A + B + C = Total amount
Calculation:
Let C's share = x
B's share = x + 8
A's share = (x + 8) + 7 = x + 15
A + B + C = 53
⇒ (x + 15) + (x + 8) + x = 53
⇒ 3x + 23 = 53
⇒ 3x = 53 - 23
⇒ 3x = 30
⇒ x = 30 / 3 = 10
C's share = 10
B's share = 10 + 8 = 18
A's share = 10 + 15 = 25
Ratio of their share = A : B : C = 25 : 18 : 10
The ratio of their share is 25 : 18 : 10.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3"
