    An amount of Rs. 900 is to be distributed among A, B and C in the proportion 4 : 5 : 6, respectively. What will be the difference between A's share and C's share, respectively?

    A) Rs. 60

    B) Rs. 100

    C) Rs. 90

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] Let shares of A, B and C are 4x, 6x and 6x, respectively. \[4x+5x+6x=900\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x=\frac{900}{15}=\text{Rs}\text{.}\,\,60\] Hence, required difference \[=6x-4x=2x\] \[=2\times 60=\text{Rs}.\,\,120\]
