The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the instructions given in the question and use the information provided about the shares and dividends. ### Step 1: Define the number of shares Let the number of shares of companies A, B, and C be in the ratio 2:3:4. We can express the number of shares as: - Number of shares of A = 2x - Number of shares of B = 3x - Number of shares of C = 4x ### Step 2: Calculate the dividends from each company 1. **For Company A:** - Dividend = 20% of Rs 250 - Dividend per share = \( \frac{20}{100} \times 250 = 50 \) - Total dividend from A = Number of shares × Dividend per share = \( 2x \times 50 = 100x \) 2. **For Company B:** - Dividend = 18% of Rs 100 - Dividend per share = \( \frac{18}{100} \times 100 = 18 \) - Total dividend from B = Number of shares × Dividend per share = \( 3x \times 18 = 54x \) 3. **For Company C:** - Dividend = 15% of Rs 50 - Dividend per share = \( \frac{15}{100} \times 50 = 7.5 \) - Total dividend from C = Number of shares × Dividend per share = \( 4x \times 7.5 = 30x \) ### Step 3: Set up the equation for total dividends According to the question, the total dividend earned from all shares is Rs 55,200. Therefore, we can set up the equation: \[ 100x + 54x + 30x = 55200 \] \[ 184x = 55200 \] ### Step 4: Solve for x To find the value of x, we divide both sides of the equation by 184: \[ x = \frac{55200}{184} = 300 \] ### Step 5: Calculate the number of shares of each company Now that we have the value of x, we can find the number of shares for each company: - Number of shares of A = \( 2x = 2 \times 300 = 600 \) - Number of shares of B = \( 3x = 3 \times 300 = 900 \) - Number of shares of C = \( 4x = 4 \times 300 = 1200 \) ### Step 6: Calculate the total market value of the shares Now, we need to calculate the total market value of the shares: 1. **Market value of shares of A:** - Market price = Rs 310 - Total market value = Number of shares × Market price = \( 600 \times 310 = 186000 \) 2. **Market value of shares of B:** - Market price = Rs 112 - Total market value = \( 900 \times 112 = 100800 \) 3. **Market value of shares of C:** - Market price = Rs 43 - Total market value = \( 1200 \times 43 = 51600 \) ### Step 7: Calculate the total market value Now, we sum up the market values of all shares: \[ \text{Total market value} = 186000 + 100800 + 51600 = 338400 \] ### Final Answer - Number of shares of A = 600 - Number of shares of B = 900 - Number of shares of C = 1200 - Total market value of the shares = Rs 338400
