Solution
The correct option is B 2000
Let the shares of A, B, C, and D be Rs. 5x, Rs. 2x, Rs. 4x and Rs. 3x respectively.
Then, 4x - 3x = 1000
x = 1000.
Hence B's share = Rs. 2x = Rs. (2 x 1000) = Rs. 2000.
2000
Let the shares of A, B, C, and D be Rs. 5x, Rs. 2x, Rs. 4x and Rs. 3x respectively.
Then, 4x - 3x = 1000
x = 1000.
Hence B's share = Rs. 2x = Rs. (2 x 1000) = Rs. 2000.
