In a trust, Raj and Rohit donated Rs. 195. Rohit and Raksha donated Rs. 512 together. If Rohit donated 1/7 of amount donated by Raksha. Then how much more Raj donated compare to Rohit? Correct Answer Rs. 67
Given:
Donated by Raj + Rohit = Rs. 195
Donated by Rohit + Raksha = Rs. 512
Rohit donated = 1/7 of Raksha
Calculation:
Donated by Raj + Rohit = Rs. 195 ……………….(1)
Donated by Rohit + Raksha = Rs. 512 ……………………(2)
Rohit donated = 1/7 of Raksha …………………….(3)
⇒ Let assume that amount donated by Raksha = Rs. x
From equation (3) and (2)
⇒ 1/7 of x + x = Rs. 512
⇒ 8/7 x = 512
⇒ x = (512 × 7)/8
⇒ x = Rs. 448
⇒ Amount donated by Raksha = Rs. 448
According to equation (3)
⇒ Amount donated by Rohit = 448 × 1/7 = Rs. 64 …………….(4)
According to equation (1) and (4)
⇒ Amount donated by Raj = Rs. 195 – Rs.64 = Rs. 131
⇒ Amount more donated by Raj = Rs. 131 – Rs. 64 = Rs. 67
∴ Rs. 67 more donated by Raj than Rohit.
The correct option is 1 i.e. Rs. 67
