Rs. 700 is divided among A, B, C so that A receives half as much as B and B half as much as C. Then C's share is

A. Rs. 200

B. Rs. 300

C. Rs. 400

D. Rs. 500

Answer: Option C

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Let C = x
Then B = $$\frac{{\text{x}}}{2}$$
and A = $$\frac{{\text{x}}}{4}$$

A : B : C = 1 : 2 : 4
C's share = $${\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\left( {\frac{4}{7} \times 700} \right) = 400$$
