Rs. 120 are divided among A, B, C such that A's share is Rs. 20 more than B's and Rs. 20 less than C's. What is B's share

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let x is subtracted.
Then,
\begin{aligned}
\frac{(6-x)}{(7-x)}< \frac{16}{21} \\

21(6—x) < 16(7—x)\\
=> 5x > 14 = x > 2.8
\end{aligned}

Least such number is 3

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Dog : Hare = (3*3) leaps of hare : 5 leaps of hare
= 9 : 5

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the numbers be 3x, 2x and 5x.
Then,
9x + 4x + 25x =1862
⇒ 38x = 1862
⇒ x = 49 ⇒ x = 7.
middle number = 2x = 14

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
a:b = 2:3 \\
b:c = 5:8 = (5*\frac{3}{5} : 8*\frac{3}{5}) \\
= 3:\frac{24}{5} \\
a:b:c = 2:3:\frac{24}{5} \\
= 10:15:24 \\
b = 98*\frac{15}{49} \\
= 30
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let the first number is A and second number is B.

As per question

\begin{aligned}
\frac{40}{100}A = \frac{2}{3}B \\

\frac{A}{B} = \frac{2}{3}*\frac{100}{40} \\
\frac{A}{B} = \frac{5}{3} \\
=> A:B = 5:3

\end{aligned}
