Three persons A, B and C have different amount of rupees with them. If A gives 11 to C, A will have equal amount as B has. A and B together have total 245. How many rupees does B have? Correct Answer 117

Let the total amount with B be Rs. X.

After giving to C, remaining amount with A = Total amount of A – 11 = X

Total amount of A = X + 11

Given, Total amount of A + Total amount of B = 245

It means, X + 11 + X = 245

2X = 245 – 11 = 234

X = 117

Total amount that B has is Rs. 117

Hence, “117” is the correct answer.
