    A, B and C rent a pasture. A puts in 10 oxen for 7 months. B, 12 oxen for 5 months and C, 15 oxen for 3 months for grazing. If the rent of the pasture is Rs. 175, how much must C pay as his share of rent?

    A)  Rs. 45

    B)  Rs. 50  

    C)  Rs. 70

    D)  Rs. 60

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] Share of rent = Number of oxen \[\times \]Time
    \[A:B:C=(10\times 7):(12\times 5):(15\times 3)\]
    \[A:B:C=70:60:45\]
    \[A:B:C=14:12:9\]
    C's share of rent
    \[=\,\,\frac{9}{14+12+9}\times 175=\,\,\frac{9}{35}\times 175=45\]
    So, C's share of rent is Rs. 45.
