1. Tom, Dick and Harry went for lunch to a restaurant. Tom had $100 with him , Dick had $60 and Harry had $40. They got a bill for $104 and decided to give a tip of $16. They further decided to share the total expenses in the ratio of the amounts of money
- A. 120
- B. 120
- C. 120
- D. 120
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Total Expense = 104 + 16 = $ 120
Ratio = 100 : 60 : 40 = 5 : 3 : 2
Tom paid = 120 × ( 5/10) = 60
Harry paid = 120 ×( 2/10) = 24
60 - 24 = 36.
