  • Question
  • Three milkmen rented a pasture. A grazed 24 cows for 4 months; B 10 cows for 6 months; C 56 cows for 5 months. If A's share of rent is Rs. 960, find the total rent of the field?


  • Options
  • A. 4530
  • B. 4440
  • C. 4360
  • D. 4280

  • Correct Answer
  • 4360 

    Explanation

    Ratio of shares of A,B,C = (24 x 4) : (10 x 6) : (56 x 5)

                                        = 96 : 60 : 280.

     

    Let total rent be Rs. x. Then, A's share =  R s . 96 x 436

      ? 96 x 436 = 960   ? x = 960 × 436 96 = 4360

     

    Hence total rent of the field is Rs. 4360.
