Question

A sum of Rs 3800 is divided among three persons A, B, and C in the ratio 12\frac{1}{2}​ : 13\frac{1}{3}​ : 34\frac{3}{4}​. What is the share of person C?

A.

Rs 3360

B.

Rs 2240

C.

Rs 2150

D.

Rs 1800

Correct option is D

Given:

A sum of Rs 3800 is divided among three persons A, B, and C in the ratio12\frac{1}{2}​​ :13\frac{1}{3}​​ :34\frac{3}{4} 
Solution:
A: B: C = 12\frac{1}{2}​​​ :13\frac{1}{3}​​​ :34\frac{3}{4} 

Multiply by 12 in all.
A: B: C = 6 : 4: 9 
Let the share of A, B and C are 6x, 4x and 9x
Sum = 3800
6x+ 4x+ 9x = 3800
19x = 3800
x = 200
Share of C = 9x = 9 ×200=1800\times 200 = 1800​​
