Rs. 700Explanation
Let the amounts to be received by P, Q and R be p, q and r. p + q + r = 1200 p = 1/2 (q + r) => 2p = q + r Adding 'p' both sides, 3p = p + q + r = 1200 => p = Rs.400 q = 1/3 (p + r) => 3q = p + r Adding 'q' both sides, 4q = p + q + r = 1200 => q = Rs.300 r = 1200 - (p + q) => r = Rs.500.Related questions
