Three farmers A, B and C rent a grazing land for grazing their goats for Rs.3609. A puts 112 goats for 2 months, B puts 102 goats for 3 months and C puts 68 goats for 4 months. What part of the rent should C pay? Correct Answer 1224
GIVEN:
A puts 112 goats for 2 months, B puts 102 goats for 3 months and C puts 68 goats for 4 months.
Total amount paid = Rs. 3609
CONCEPT:
Basic concept of Profit and Loss.
FORMULA USED:
Ratio of profit sharing = Ratio of
CALCULATION:
Rent is to be distributed among A, B and C in the Ratio = 112 × 2 : 102 × 3 : 68 × 4
= 224 : 306 : 272
= 112 : 153 : 136
∴ Rent to be paid by C = 136/(112 + 153 + 136) × 3609
= 136/401 × 3609
= 136 × 9
= Rs. 1224
