Question

Vipin, Tushar and Vikas are living in a room on rent. In a month Tushar decided to pay one-fifth of the total rent and Vikas decided to pay two-fourth of the total rent. How much will Vipin pay, if the rent of room is $Rs.12,500$ per month.

• A. $Rs.6,250$
• B. $Rs.3,750$
• C. $Rs.2,500$
• D. $Rs.2,560$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $Rs.3,750$

Total Room rent $Rs.12500$

Tushar $\frac{1}{5}$ of total $=\frac{1}{5}\left(12500\right)=2500$

Vikas $\frac{2}{4}$ of total $=\frac{2}{4}\left(12500\right)=\frac{25000}{4}=6250$

We have to find how much viipn has to pay

i.e; $Vipin=Total-(Tushar+Vikas)$

$12500-(2500+6250)$

$12500-8750$

$Vipin=3750$ Rupees.
