A sum of Rs. 86700 is to be divided among A, B and C in such a manner that for every rupee that A gets, B gets 90 paise and for every rupee that B gets, C gets 110 paise. B's share will be
1). Rs.26010
2). Rs.27000
3). Rs.28000
4). Rs.28090

This Question has 3 answers.

option 2 : Rs.27000 is correct

Here in this question C gets 110 paise, then B's share is 27,000/-

When A gets 100 paise, B gets = 90 Paise
When B gets 100 paise, C gets = 110 paise
$\therefore$ When B gets 90 paise, C gets =  $\frac{110}{100}\times90$ = 99 paise

$\therefore$ A : B : C = 100 : 90 : 99
Sum of the ratios = 100 + 90 + 99 = 289

$\therefore$ B’ share = $\frac{90}{289}\times86700$ = rs 27000
