A man leaves ₹ 8,600 to be divided among 5 sons, 4 daughters and 2 nephews. If each daughter receives four times as much as each nephew and each son receives five times as much as each nephew, how much does each daughter receive?
-
- ₹ 100
- ₹ 600
- ₹ 800
- ₹ 1,000
Correct Option: C
According to question,
Son : Daughter : Nephew
= 5x : 4x : x
But 5 sons : 4 daughters : 2 nephews
= 25x : 16x : 2x
and 25x + 16x + 2x = ₹ 8600
43x = ₹ 8600
x = ₹ 200
∴ Required answer
= 4 × 200 = ₹ 800
