    Alok, Bhism and Chandra hired a meadow jointly for the whole year. Alok put in 80 buffaloes for 10 months, Bhism 100 buffaloes for 5 months and Chandra 150 buffaloes for 4 months. If Alok paid Rs. 320 as rent, what is the total rent for the meadow?

    A) Rs. 380

    B)  Rs. 1520

    C)  Rs. 760

    D)  Rs. 1080

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Number of buffaloes put by Alok for 1 month\[=10\times 80=800\] Number of buffaloes put by Bhisma for 1 month\[=5\times 100=500\] Number of buffaloes put by Chandra for 1 month\[=4\times 150=600\] \[\therefore \]      Ratio = 800 : 500 : 600 = 8 : 5 : 6 \[\therefore \] Sum of ratios \[=8+5+6=19\] \[\therefore \] Total rent for the meadow \[=\frac{19\times 320}{8}\] = Rs. 760
