Question:

Rs.4800 is distributed between A , B , and C in the proportions   2 : 3 : 5 . The sum of shares of A and C is?

Options:

3240

2240

3360

1280

Correct Answer:

3360

Explanation:

Ratio of     A    :     B     :    C

                 2   :     3     :    5 

( 2R + 3R + 5R ) = 10R

10R = 4800   (given) 

1R = 480 

Sum of A & C = 2R + 5R = 7R 

7R = 7 × 480 = 3360
