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
