    A, B and C rent a pasture. A puts in 10 oxen for 7 months, B 12 oxen for 5 months and C 15 oxen for 3 months for grazing. If the rent of the pasture is Rs. 175, how much must C pay as his share of rent?

    A) Rs. 45

    B) Rs. 50

    C) Rs. 55              

    D) Rs. 60

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Share of rent = (number of oxen \[\times \] time) \[A:B:C=(10\times 7):(12\times 5):(15\times 30)\] \[A:B:C=70:60:45\] \[A:B:C=14:12:9\] C?s share of rent \[=\frac{9}{14+12+9}\times 175\]             \[=\frac{9}{35}\times 175=45\] \[\therefore \]      C?s share of rent is Rs. 45.
