Q. A bonus of Rs.2800 is to be divided among 3 people such that Alex gets twice as much as David, who receives one-fourth as much as Peter. What amount did Peter get?

(A) 1200

(B) 2000

(D) 1500

Correct Answer - Option(C)

Explanation by: Mohini Yadav

Let Peter’s share be x.
Hence, David gets x/4 and Alex gets x/2.
x + x/4 + x/2 = 2800
7x/4 = 2800
x = Rs.1600
