Solution

The correct option is B
&

Share of the first kid = 2x

Share of the second kid = 3x

Share of the third kid = 5x

Total Amount = Rs 1000

That is, 2x + 3x + 5x = 1000

10x = 1000 $⟹$ x = 100

Therefore,

Share of the first person = 2(100) = Rs 200

Share of the second person = 3(100) = Rs 300

Share of the third person = 5(100) = Rs 500
