Three boys Hari, Biju and Naga together have Rs. 675. Hari has got three times as much as Biju but Rs. 25 more than Naga. How much does Naga have? Correct Answer Rs. 275
Given:
They have together Rs. 675
Hari has got three times as much as Biju but Rs. 25 more than Naga
Concept Used:
Concept of share
If A has share Rs. X and B has share Rs. Y then their total share is (X + Y)
Calculation:
Let share of Biju is x
Share of Hari is 3x
Share of Naga is (3x – 25)
Accordingly,
x + 3x + 3x – 25 = 675
⇒ 7x = 675 + 25
⇒ x = 700/7
⇒ x = 100
Share of naga is (3 × 100 – 25)
⇒ 275
∴ Naga have Rs. 275
