Question:

A sum of ₹15,250 is divided among Shrinza, Sheetal and Chirag such that Shrinza receives 40% more than Sheetal and Sheetal receives 40% less than Chirag. What is Chirag's share?

Options:

₹6,000

₹6,250

₹7,250

₹5,250

Correct Answer:

₹6,250

Explanation:

Shrinza : Sheetal : Chirag

   7       :    5       :         

            :    3       :      5

  21       :   15     :      25

⇒ (21 + 15 + 25) units = Rs. 15250

⇒ 61 units = Rs. 15250,

⇒ 1 unit = Rs. 250,

Chirag's share = 25 x 250 = Rs. 6250.
