Question



The daily income of three persons A, B and C is in the ratio of 2:5:11 and the income of B is Rs. 291 more than that of A, Find the income of C

A.

Rs. 679

B.

Rs. 1,746

C.

Rs. 1,067

D.

Rs. 1,256

Correct option is C

Suppose, that the daily income of three persons A, B and C is 2x, 5x and 11x.
Given that the income of B is Rs. 291 more than that of A. So,
=>5x=2x+291=>5x2x=291=>3x=291=>x=97\Rightarrow 5x = 2x + 291 \\\Rightarrow 5x – 2x = 291 \\\Rightarrow 3x = 291 \\\Rightarrow x = 97​​
Now, the income of C,
=>11x=11×97=>11x=Rs.1067\Rightarrow 11x = 11 × 97 \\\Rightarrow 11x = Rs. 1067​​
So, the income of (c) is Rs. 1,067.
