The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will use the information provided in the question and set up equations based on the relationships between A, B, and C. ### Step 1: Define the total amount and relationships Let the total amount be Rs 70,200. According to the problem: - A receives \( \frac{4}{5} \) of the sum of B and C. - B receives \( \frac{2}{11} \) of the sum of A and C. ### Step 2: Set up the equations From the information given, we can express A in terms of B and C: \[ A = \frac{4}{5}(B + C) \] Also, since the total amount is Rs 70,200, we have: \[ A + B + C = 70,200 \] ### Step 3: Express B in terms of A and C From the second condition, we can express B in terms of A and C: \[ B = \frac{2}{11}(A + C) \] ### Step 4: Substitute B in the total amount equation Now, we can substitute the expression for B into the total amount equation: \[ A + \frac{2}{11}(A + C) + C = 70,200 \] ### Step 5: Simplify the equation Multiply through by 11 to eliminate the fraction: \[ 11A + 2(A + C) + 11C = 11 \times 70,200 \] This simplifies to: \[ 11A + 2A + 2C + 11C = 772200 \] Combining like terms gives: \[ 13A + 13C = 772200 \] ### Step 6: Factor out common terms Factoring out 13 from the left side: \[ 13(A + C) = 772200 \] Now, divide both sides by 13: \[ A + C = \frac{772200}{13} = 59400 \] ### Step 7: Substitute back to find A Now we can substitute \( A + C = 59400 \) back into the equation for B: \[ B = \frac{2}{11}(A + C) = \frac{2}{11}(59400) = 10800 \] ### Step 8: Find A using the total amount Now we can find A using the total amount: \[ A + B + C = 70,200 \] Substituting B: \[ A + 10800 + C = 70200 \] This simplifies to: \[ A + C = 59400 \quad \text{(which we already found)} \] ### Step 9: Find C Now, we can find C by substituting A back into the equation for A: Using \( A = \frac{4}{5}(B + C) \): \[ A = \frac{4}{5}(10800 + C) \] Substituting \( A + C = 59400 \): \[ C = 59400 - A \] ### Step 10: Solve for C Now we can substitute \( A \) back into the equation: 1. From \( A + C = 59400 \), we can express C as: \[ C = 59400 - A \] 2. Substitute \( A = \frac{4}{5}(10800 + C) \) into this equation and solve for C. After solving, we find that: \[ C = 28,200 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the amount received by C is Rs 28,200. ---
