Prize money of Rs. 10,000 was distributed among 2 girls and one boy. Quantity I: ratio of prize money distributed among girl1, girls 2 and boy is 7 : 7 : 6. What is prize amount earned by boy? Quantity II: What is prize share of boy. IF boy earns Rs. 500 less than both girls who earns equal amount Correct Answer Quantity 1 = Quantity 2

Given:

Total amount = Rs. 10,000

Ratio = 7 : 7 : 6

Boy’s prize = 500 – girl’s prize

Calculation:

Total amount = Rs. 10,000

Quantity I:

Girl1 : Girl2 : Boy = 7 : 7 : 6

⇒ Boy’s share = (6 / 20) × 10,000

⇒ Boy’s share = 3,000

Quantity II:

Let prize earn by boy is X

⇒ prize earn by girl = X + 500

⇒ 10,000 = X + (X + 500) + (X + 500)

⇒ 10,000 = 3X + 1000

⇒ 9,000 = 3X

⇒ X = 3,000

∴ Quantity I = Quantity II
