Rs. 53 is divided among A, B and C in such a way that A gets Rs. 7 more than what B gets and B gets Rs. 8 more than what C gets. The ratio of their shares is?

Correct Answer: 25 : 18 : 10

Explanation:

Suppose C gets Rs. x
Then, B gets Rs. (x + 8) and A gets Rs. (x + 15)

∴ x =10
so, A : B : C = 25 : 18 : 10
