a sum of rs . 427 is to be divided among a , b and c in such a way that 3 times a ’ s share , 4 times b ’ s share and 7 times c ’ s share are all equal . the share of c is ?
given total sum = rs . 427 and given that 3 times a ’ s share , 4 times b ’ s share and 7 times c ’ s share are all equal . = > 3 a = 4 b = 7 c but given = > a + b + c = 427 now express a and b in terms of c i . e = > ( 7 c / 3 ) + ( 7 c / 4 ) + c = 427 = > c = 84 answer : c
divide(427, add(divide(7, 7), add(divide(7, 3), divide(7, 4))))
