A sum of money is to be distributed among A, B, C, D in the proportion of 5 : 2 : 4 : 3. If C gets Rs. 1000 more than D. What is B's share?
Explanation
Let the shares of A, B, C and D be Rs. 5x, Rs. 2x, Rs. 4x and Rs. 3x respectively
Then, 4x - 3x = 1000
⇒ x = 1000
∴ B's share = Rs. 2x = Rs. (2 x 1000) = Rs. 2000
