(ADRE 2024)

(A)  ₹28

(B) ₹30

(C)  ₹32

(D)  ₹34

Answer:- (C)  ₹32

Solution:- 

Let C’s share be x.
Then, B’s share = x + 2
And, A’s share = x + 2 + 2 = x + 4

According to the problem,
⇒ x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 90
⇒ 3x + 6 = 90
⇒ 3x = 90 – 6
⇒ 3x = 84
⇒ x = 84 / 3
⇒ x = 28

So, A’s share = x + 4 = 28 + 4 = 32
