Raj, Rahul and Sohan works for a person and if the ratio of Raj's pay to Rahul's pay is 3 ∶ 4 . The ratio of Rahul's pay to Sohan's pay is 2 ∶ 9. If Raj is paid Rs. 1500, how much is Sohan paid? Correct Answer 9000

Let the pay of Raj, Rahul's and Sohan be Rs. x, y and z resp.

⇒ x/y = 3/4

⇒ x = Rs. 1500

⇒ 1500/y = 3/4

⇒ y = 1500 × (4/3) = Rs. 2000

Also, the ratio of Rahul's pay to Sohan's pay is 2 ∶ 9

⇒ y/z = 2/9

⇒ y = Rs. 2000

⇒ 2000/z = 2/9

⇒ Z = 2000 × (9/2) = Rs. 9000

∴ Sohan is paid Rs. 9000
