A, B, C rent a pasture. A puts 10 oxen for 7 months, B puts 12 oxen for 5 months and C puts 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?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
A : B : C = (10 x 7) : (12 x 5) : (15 x 3) = 70 : 60 : 45 = 14 : 12 : 9.
 C's rent = Rs. |
 |
175 x | 9 |  |
= Rs. 45. |
| 35 |

Hi its just like this and simple when we want to remove the ratio we should add all the number were eg here 14/35,12/35,9/35 thus our formula says
(ratio of c's rent /total ratio)*total ratio thus
we get rent of c =175*9/35
(ratio of c's rent /total ratio)*total ratio thus
we get rent of c =175*9/35
