The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, let's break it down: ### Step 1: Understand the shares of A, B, and C - A has \( \frac{3}{10} \) of the total money. - B has \( \frac{7}{15} \) of the total money. - C has \( \frac{7}{30} \) of the total money. ### Step 2: Find a common denominator To compare the shares, we need to find a common denominator for the fractions. The denominators are 10, 15, and 30. - The least common multiple (LCM) of 10, 15, and 30 is 30. ### Step 3: Convert each fraction to have the common denominator - For A: \[ \frac{3}{10} = \frac{3 \times 3}{10 \times 3} = \frac{9}{30} \] - For B: \[ \frac{7}{15} = \frac{7 \times 2}{15 \times 2} = \frac{14}{30} \] - For C: \[ \frac{7}{30} = \frac{7}{30} \quad (\text{remains the same}) \] ### Step 4: Compare the shares Now we have: - A: \( \frac{9}{30} \) - B: \( \frac{14}{30} \) - C: \( \frac{7}{30} \) The largest numerator indicates the largest share: - A: 9 - B: 14 - C: 7 B has the largest share. ### Step 5: Calculate how much money A has The total money is ₹1500. To find out how much A has: \[ \text{A's share} = \frac{9}{30} \times 1500 \] ### Step 6: Simplify the calculation \[ \text{A's share} = 1500 \times \frac{9}{30} = 1500 \times 0.3 = 450 \] ### Conclusion A has ₹450. ### Summary of Results - B has the biggest share. - A has ₹450.

To solve the problem step by step, let's break it down: ### Step 1: Understand the shares of A, B, and C - A has \( \frac{3}{10} \) of the total money. - B has \( \frac{7}{15} \) of the total money. - C has \( \frac{7}{30} \) of the total money. ### Step 2: Find a common denominator ...
