    Question

    Bala has thrice as much amount as that of Lalit and Lalit has 10 percent more amount than Vimal. If the average amount of all three of them is ₹1350, then how much amount is with Bala?

    A.

    ₹2455

    B.

    ₹2465

    C.

    ₹2475

    D.

    ₹2355

    Correct option is C

    Given:

    • Bala has 3 times the amount Lalit has
    • Lalit has 10% more than Vimal
    • Average amount of Bala, Lalit, and Vimal = ₹1350
    • Need to find the amount with Bala

    Concept Used:

    Average=Sum of all amounts3\text{Average} = \frac{\text{Sum of all amounts}}{3}

    Solution:

    Lalit's amount = Vimal's amount × (110/100)

    Bala's amount = 3 × Lalit's amount

    Let Vimal's amount = ₹x

    Then,
    Lalit's amount = x × 110/100 =1.1x
    Bala's amount = 3 × 1.1x =3.3x

    Total amount = x + 1.1x + 3.3x =5.4x

    Average amount = Total / 3 = 1350
    So,

    5.4x3=1350=>1.8x=1350=>x=13501.8=750\frac{5.4x}{3} = 1350 \\\Rightarrow 1.8x = 1350 \\\Rightarrow x = \frac{1350}{1.8} = 750​​

    Now, Bala’s amount = 3.3x = 3.3 × 750 =₹2475

    Final Answer: (C) ₹2475
