          Answer & Explanation
         Answer: C) 84         
         
Explanation: Given total sum = Rs. 427
And given that 3 times A’s share, 4 times B’s share and 7 times C’s share are all equal.
=> 3A = 4B = 7C
But given
=> A + B + C = 427
Now express A and B in terms of C i.e
=> (7C/3) + (7C/4) + C = 427
=> C = 84
