Three persons A, B, and C have different amounts of rupees with them. If C takes ₹11 from A, C will have equal amount as B has. B and C together have total ₹111. How many rupees does C have? Correct Answer 50

Let the amount with C be X. Then, amount with C after taking ₹11 from A = X + 11

According to the given information, amount with B = X + 11.

Also, the amount with C before taking ₹11+ amount with B = 111.

⇒ X + X + 11 = 111

⇒ 2X = 100

⇒ X = 50

Hence, C has Rs 50.
