Home » Aptitude » Ratio, Proportion » Question

A sum of money is divided among A, B, C and D in the ratio of 3 : 7 : 9 : 13 . If the share of B is ₹, then what will be the total amount of money of A and C together ?

1. ₹ 8352
2. ₹ 6998
3. ₹ 9784
4. ₹ 7456
5. None of the above

Correct Option: A

Let A's share = 3N
B's share = 9N
and D's share = 13N
According to the question
7N = 4872
∴ N = 4872/7 = 696
Share of A and C = 3N + 9N = 12N
= 12 x 696 = ₹ 8352
