​A shopkeeper divided a sum of ₹250,000 between his three sons in a proportion of 30%, 45% and 25% respectively. How much did each son inherit? ​

Correct option is D

Given:

Total amount: ₹250,000

Proportion for Son 1: 30%

Proportion for Son 2: 45%

Proportion for Son 3: 25%

Formula Used:

Inheritance for each son = (Proportion of son) $$\times$$​ (Total amount)

Solution:

Son 1's Inheritance:

Calculate 30% of ₹250,000=0.30$$\times$$₹250,000 = ₹75,000

Son 2's Inheritance:

Calculate 45% of ₹250,000=0.45$$\times$$₹250,000 = ₹112,500

Son 3's Inheritance:

Calculate 25% of ₹250,000= 0.25$$\times$$ ₹250,000 = ₹62,500

Therefore:

Son 1 inherited ₹75,000

Son 2 inherited ₹112,500

Son 3 inherited ₹62,500

Option (d) is right answer.
