C.

A=Rs.512, B = Rs.365 and C = Rs.285

D.

A=Rs.450, B = Rs.425 and C = Rs.327

Correct option is B

Given:

Total amount to be divided = Rs. 1,162
Ratio of amounts for A, B, and C = 35:28:20
Solution:

Calculate the Total of the Ratios:

The total of the ratios 35, 28, and 20 is:
35 + 28 + 20 = 83

For A:
A's Share = 3583×1162\frac{35}{83} \times 1162​​

35×116283\frac{35 \times 1162}{83}​​

= 490

Thus, A's share is Rs. 490.

For B:
B's Share = 2883×1162\frac{28}{83} \times 1162​​

28×116283\frac{28 \times 1162}{83}​​

= 392
Thus, B's share is Rs. 392.

For C:
C's Share = 2083×1162\frac{20}{83} \times 1162​​
=20×116283= \frac{20 \times 1162}{83}​​

= 280

Thus, C's share is Rs. 280.

The amount of Rs. 1,162 is divided among A, B, and C as follows:

• A: Rs. 490
• B: Rs. 392
• C: Rs. 280
