Question

if the income of A, B and C is in the ratio of 2:5:11 and the income of B is 291 more than A, then the income of C is?

Answer 1

The information in the question let’s us solve for A using a ratio:

A / (A + 291) = 2 / 5
5A = 2A + 582
3A = 582
A = 194

Now we can use ratios again to solve for C:

11 / 2 = C / 194
2C = 2134
C = 1067
