The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will denote the salaries of Aman, Bhavesh, and Charlie as A, B, and C respectively. ### Step 1: Set up the equations based on the relationships given. From the problem, we know: 1. \( \frac{3}{5} A = B \) (Three-fifth of Aman's salary is equal to Bhavesh's salary) 2. \( \frac{7}{11} B = C \) (Seven-eleventh of Bhavesh's salary is equal to Charlie's salary) 3. \( A + B + C = 5559 \) (The sum of their salaries is Rs 5559) ### Step 2: Substitute B in terms of A into the equation for C. From the first equation, we can express B in terms of A: \[ B = \frac{3}{5} A \] Now, substitute B into the second equation to find C: \[ C = \frac{7}{11} B = \frac{7}{11} \left(\frac{3}{5} A\right) = \frac{21}{55} A \] ### Step 3: Substitute B and C into the total salary equation. Now we substitute B and C back into the total salary equation: \[ A + B + C = 5559 \] Substituting the values of B and C: \[ A + \frac{3}{5} A + \frac{21}{55} A = 5559 \] ### Step 4: Find a common denominator and combine the terms. To combine the terms, we need a common denominator. The least common multiple of 5 and 55 is 55. Thus, we rewrite the equation: \[ A + \frac{3 \times 11}{55} A + \frac{21}{55} A = 5559 \] This simplifies to: \[ A + \frac{33}{55} A + \frac{21}{55} A = 5559 \] Combining the terms gives: \[ A + \frac{54}{55} A = 5559 \] This can be rewritten as: \[ \frac{55}{55} A + \frac{54}{55} A = 5559 \] \[ \frac{109}{55} A = 5559 \] ### Step 5: Solve for A. Now, multiply both sides by \( \frac{55}{109} \): \[ A = 5559 \times \frac{55}{109} \] Calculating the right side: \[ A = 5559 \times 0.504587 = 2805 \] ### Step 6: Calculate B and C. Now that we have A, we can find B and C: 1. For B: \[ B = \frac{3}{5} A = \frac{3}{5} \times 2805 = 1683 \] 2. For C: \[ C = \frac{21}{55} A = \frac{21}{55} \times 2805 = 1071 \] ### Final Salaries: - Aman's salary (A) = Rs 2805 - Bhavesh's salary (B) = Rs 1683 - Charlie's salary (C) = Rs 1071 ### Summary of Salaries: - Aman: Rs 2805 - Bhavesh: Rs 1683 - Charlie: Rs 1071
