In an innings of a cricket match, three players A, B and C scored a total of 361 runs. If the ratio of the number of runs scored by A to that scored by B and also number of runs scored by B to that scored by C be 3 : 2, the number of runs scored by A was
-
- 171
- 181
- 185
- 161
Correct Option: A
A : B = 3 : 2 = 9 : 6
B : C = 3 : 2 = 6 : 4
∴ A : B :C = 9 : 6 : 4
Total runs = 361
∴ Number of runs scored by A = | × 361 | |
(9 + 6 + 4) |
= | × 361 = 171 | |
