A. 19 : 24 : 33
B. 32 : 25 : 19
C. 32 : 24 : 20
D. 19 : 25 : 33
Answer: Option B
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Let C gets x rupees∴ B gets x + 6 rupees
∴ A gets x + 6 + 7 rupees
Total A + B + C ⇒ (3x + 19)
⇒ 3x + 19 = Rs. 76
⇒ 3x = 76 - 19
⇒ 3x = 57
⇒ x = 19
A gets = 19 + 13 = Rs. 32
B gets = 19 + 6 = Rs. 25
C gets = Rs. 19
∴ A : B : C
= 32 : 25 : 19
