  • Question
  • Mani Ram divides ? 17200 among his 5 sons, 4 daughters and 2 friends. If each daughter receives four times as much as each friend receives and each son receives five times as mush as each friend receives, how much does each daughter receive?


  • Options
  • A. ? 800
  • B. ? 1500
  • C. ? 1000
  • D. ? 1600

  • Correct Answer
  • ? 1600 

    Explanation

    Let share of each friend = a.
    Then, share of each daughter = 4a.
    and share of each son = 5a.
    According to the question,
    5 x 5a + 4 x 4a + 2 x a = 17200
    ? 25x + 16x + 2x = 17200
    ? 43x = 17200
    ? x = 17200/43 = 400
    ? Share of each daughter
    = 4x = 4 x 400
    = ? 1600
