  • Question
  • 5% income of A is equal to 15% income of B and 10% income of B is equal to 20% income of C. If income of C is Rs.2000, then total income of A, B and C is?


  • Options
  • A. Rs. 6000
  • B. Rs. 18000
  • C. Rs. 20000
  • D. Rs. 14000

  • Correct Answer
  • Rs. 18000 

    Explanation

    ? 5% of A=15% of B and 10% of B = 20% of C
    ? A/20 = 3B/20 and B/10 = C/5
    ? B = 2C
    ? A/20 = (3/20) x 2C = 3C/10 =(3/10) x 2000 = 600
    ? A = (600 x 20) = 12000,
    B = (2 x 2000) = 4000
    ? A + B + C = (12000 + 4000 + 2000) = 18000
