    A and B rent a pasture for 10 months. A puts in 100 cows for 8 months. How many can B put in for the remaining 2 months, if he pays half as much again as A?

    A) 550

    B)  600

    C)  650

    D)  700

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Suppose B puts in x cows, Ratio of A's and B's rent \[=1:1+\frac{1}{2}=2:3\] Then,    \[\frac{100\times 8}{x\times 2}=\frac{2}{3}\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x=\frac{100\times 8\times 3}{2\times 2}=600\]cows
