Discussion

Aman, Anil and Atul agree to buy ₹10 worth of lottery ticket with Aman contributing ₹5, Anil ₹3 and Atul ₹2. They agree that if they win anything with this ticket, it should be shared out in the same ratio as their contributions. If they win ₹25,000, how much does Anil get?

  • A.₹4,000
  • B.₹5,000
  • C.₹6,500
  • D.₹7,500

Answer: D

Anil gets ₹7,500.

The contributions are 5 : 3 : 2, which add up to 10 parts. Anil put in 3 of the 10 parts, so his share of the prize is

\[ \frac{3}{10} \times 25000 = 7500 \]

Aman receives ₹12,500 and Atul ₹5,000, and the three shares add to ₹25,000 as a check. ₹5,000 is Atul's share, not Anil's; ₹4,000 and ₹6,500 do not correspond to any of the three fractions.
