  1. Divide ₋ 990 into 3 parts in such a way that half of the first part, one - third of the second part and one -fifth of the third part are equal .
    1. 198, 494, 298
    2. 198, 297 , 495
    3. `200, 300 , 490
    4. 196, 298, 496 ,
Correct Option: B

If three parts be P, Q and R,
then, P/2 = Q/3 = R/5
⇒ P : Q : R = 2 : 3 : 5
∴ P = (2/10) x 990 = 198
Q = (3/10) x 990 = 297 and
R = (5/10) x 990 = 495
