Answer: Option
Explanation:
Let C's share = Rs. x
Then, B's share = Rs. | x | , A's share = Rs. | ![]() |
2 | x | x | ![]() |
= Rs. | x |
4 | 3 | 4 | 6 |
![]() |
x | + | x | + x = 1360 |
6 | 4 |
![]() |
17x | = 1360 |

![]() |
1360 x 12 | = Rs. 960 |

x/6+x/4+x/1=1360
(2x+3X+12x)/12=1360
HERE 12 IS LCM OF 2,4,1
(2x+3X+12x)/12=1360
HERE 12 IS LCM OF 2,4,1

x/6 + x/4+ x/1 =1360
l.c.m of6,4 &1 is 12
so 2x + 3x+ 12x/12=1360
17x/12=1360
This way is comes 17x/12 sabri
