A sum of Rs. 750 is distributed among A, B, C and D in such a manner that A gets as much as B and C together, B gets Rs. 125 more than C and D gets as much as C. What is A's share ?


A) Rs.100

B) Rs.225

C) Rs.275

D) Rs.325

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

From the quetion, we get
A = (125 + C) + C
B = 125 + C
C = C
D = C
A + B + C + D = 750
125 + 2C + 125 + C + C + C = 750
5C = 500
C = 100
Therefore A's share = 2C + 125 = 200 + 125 = 325
