Read the information given below carefully and answer the questions based on it.
There are three person A, B and C who administered and attempted questions in a test. Total questions attempt by B is half of the number questions administered by him, while the number of questions attempt by B and C is same. The number of questions administered by C is 240. The sum of number of questions attempted by A and C is 270. The number of questions administered by A is 60 less than that of B. The total number of questions administered by A, B and C is 100% more than total number questions attempted by them.

1) Question

The number questions attempt by C is how many more or less than the number of questions administered by B.

A.

180

B.

140

C.

190

D.

200

E.

110

Correct option is A


Let total questions administered by B = 2x
So, total questions attempt by B = 2x ×1/2=x
And, total number of questions attempted by C = x
Total questions attempted by A = 270 – x
Total number of questions administered by A = 2x – 60
ATQ, 2×(270 – x + x + x) = 2x + 240 + 2x - 60
540+2x = 4x+180
2x = 360
x = 180
