• B. $Rs180$
• C. $Rs145$
• D. $Rs160$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $Rs175$

Rs. 350 divide Among P,Q & R in ratio

$2:5:3.$

$\to P:Q:R=2:5:3$

$P=2x,Q=5x,R=3x$

$\to$ total money $=P+Q+R$

$\therefore 350=2x+5x+3x$

$\therefore 350=10x$

$\therefore x=35Rs.$

$\to P$ getting $=2\times 35=70RS$

$\to Q$ getting $5\times 35=175Rs$

$\to R$ getting $3\times 35=105Rs$
