  1. 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
    1. 171
    2. 181
    3. 185
    4. 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 =
9
× 361
(9 + 6 + 4)

=
9
× 361 = 171
