Question:
A sum of Rs.1,075 is divided among Aman, Anu and Aradhya such that Aman receives 25% more than Aradhya and Aradhya receive 25% less than Anu. What is Aman’s  share in the amount?
Options:
A) Rs.375
B) Rs.425
C) Rs.400
D) Rs.450
Solution:

Ans: (a)

Let Anu get x, then Aaradhya get 75% of x and Aman gets 125% amount of 75% of x

75% of x + 125% of 75% of x + x = 1075

x = 400

\(\cfrac{125}{100}\) × \(\cfrac{75}{100}\) × 400

= Rs.375.

Dear student,
Let Aman = x , Anu= y , Aradhya = z
x= (125/100)z = (5/4) z
z=( 75/100)y = (3/4) y
x : z = 5:4
z : y = 3:4
15 : 12 : 16
So Aman's share = 1075 x ( 15 / 43) = 375
