Out of a total amount of Rs.4740, B receives 20% more than A and 25% more than C. What is B's share?

The correct option is B Rs.1800 Let the amount of money A has `x' The amount of money B has `1.2x' Thus, the amount of money C has `0.96x' Now, x +1.2x +0.96x = 4740 ⇒ 3.16x = 4740 ⇒ x = 1500 Solving we get amount of money for B ⇒ 1.2x = Rs.1800

The correct option is B
Rs.1800

Let the amount of money A has `x'

The amount of money B has `1.2x'

Thus, the amount of money C has `0.96x'

Now,

x +1.2x +0.96x = 4740

$\Rightarrow$ 3.16x = 4740

$\Rightarrow$ x = 1500

Solving we get amount of money for B $\Rightarrow$ 1.2x = Rs.1800
