An amount of money is shared among P,Q and R such that for every 3P gets, Q gets 2 and for every 1Q gets, R gets 4. Find P: Q : R
- 3 : 1 : 4
- 3 : 2 : 1
- 3 : 2 : 4
- 3 : 3 : 4
-
3 : 2 : 8
The correct answer is: E
Explanation
P gets 3 Q gets 2, Q gets 1 and R gets R
When Q gets 1 then P will get \(\frac{3}{2}\)
P : Q: R = \(\frac{3}{2}\) : 1 : 4
multiplying through by 2, we have
3 : 2: 8.
