Solution

The correct option is B

2a+3b=1500


Given, A has ₹ a and B has ₹ b.

Given that,
The sum of twice the amount A has and thrice the amount B has is equal to ₹ 1500.

Twice the amount of money A has will be 2×a=2a.

Thrice the amount of money B has will be 3×b=3b.

Now, on framing the above provided statement,
we get 2a+3b=1500.
