The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of dividing Rs. 3960 among A, B, and C such that half of A's part, one-third of B's part, and one-sixth of C's part are equal, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define the Parts**: Let A's part be \( A \), B's part be \( B \), and C's part be \( C \). 2. **Set Up the Equation**: According to the problem, we have: \[ \frac{A}{2} = \frac{B}{3} = \frac{C}{6} \] Let's denote this common value as \( k \). Therefore, we can express A, B, and C in terms of \( k \): \[ A = 2k, \quad B = 3k, \quad C = 6k \] 3. **Sum of Parts**: The total amount distributed among A, B, and C is Rs. 3960. Hence, we can write: \[ A + B + C = 3960 \] Substituting the expressions for A, B, and C: \[ 2k + 3k + 6k = 3960 \] 4. **Combine Like Terms**: Combine the terms on the left: \[ 11k = 3960 \] 5. **Solve for k**: Now, divide both sides by 11 to find \( k \): \[ k = \frac{3960}{11} = 360 \] 6. **Find Individual Parts**: Now that we have \( k \), we can find A, B, and C: \[ A = 2k = 2 \times 360 = 720 \] \[ B = 3k = 3 \times 360 = 1080 \] \[ C = 6k = 6 \times 360 = 2160 \] 7. **Conclusion**: Therefore, C's part is: \[ C = 2160 \] ### Final Answer: C's part is Rs. 2160. ---
