ANSWERS -HURDLE 15 : DISTRIBUTION OF PROPERTY AMONG CHILDREN

Ans 1. Only statement C is possible. If 5 children share the property the average percentage will be 20 %.

Ans 2.Checking Each statement :
a) Not correct as A: E in ratio of 1:5 so if A get 100, E gets 500.
b) A:B = X : X+100 = 1:2
2X = X+100
X = 100
Now , B: C = X+100 :X+300 = 2:5
5X+500 = 2X+600
3X = 100
This give different value of X so the statement is not possible.
c) B and C get 2x + 3X = 5X , E gets 5X , so the statement is not correct.
d) A:C = X : X+150 = 1:3
or 3X = X+150
or X = 75
Now C:E = X+150 : X+300 = 3:5
5X + 750 = 3x + 900
2X = 150
So X = 75 , So this is possible. So Only statement D is correct.

Ans 3.None of the statement is false. Let each one get 2X,
3X,4X,5X and 7x making the total = 21x. (UrPercentile.com)
a) If you know the value of 3x+4X you can determine X.
b) If you know the value of 7x-2X , you can determine X.
c) If you know the value of 5x , you can determine X.
d) If you know the value of 3x+4x+5x , you can determine X.

Ans 4. INR 16,500.00 INR 82,500.00.

Ans 5.INR 22,750.00 INR 195,000.00

Ans 6. INR 14,200.00 INR 113,600.00
Solution of Q6: Total Amount = 355,000
The fifth one gets= 71,000
So the first four get = 355,000 - 71,000= 284,000
Dividing 284,000 in Ratio 1:4:7:8

First one gets : 284,000/ 20 = 14,200
Since the second and third one cannot be the one who get the
lowest or highest amount we calculate for the fourth one.
The fourth one gets: 162,500*8/20= 113,600.
So the highest is113,600 (received by the fourth one) and the
lowest is 14,200 received by the first one.

PART 2:

Ans1-B. Statement A is false. If 16 % = 44,800 than 100 % will be 280,000. Statement C is also fasle. if 16 % = 17776 , 100%
will be 1,11,100. Those who selected either A or C can take credit for this question. There was error in option the last option
should have been both A and C.

Ans2-B. Checking each statement :
a) Not necessarily true. This may be one of the situation but is not the only situation.
b) The fifth child gets 27 %. So difference between fifth and fourth child is 1% and difference between second and third child is 10
% . So difference of 75 and 750 is correct. (UrPercentile.com)
c) Difference between first and third child = 11%.
11X/100 = 110
X = 110*100/11 = 1000
So minimum balance is 1000 and not 1100.
So only statement B is true.

Ans3-B.Statement C is false. The second child gets 38,350.

Ans4-B. 240,000 19,200 43,200 50,400 60,000

Ans5-B. 220,000 19,800 41,800 48,400 57,200

Ans6-B. 320,000 41,600 38,400 76,800 96,000
The first four receive 13%,12%,24%, 30% respectively.
In total these four receive 79%
The balance = 21 %
Now 21 % = 67,200. (UrPercentile.com)
so 100 %= 320,000 is the bank Balance
and 13 % of 320,000 = 41,600. (First Child)
and 12 % of 320,000 = 38,400. (Second Child)
and 24 % of 320,000 = 76,800. (Third Child)
and 30 % of 320,000 = 96,800. (Fourth Child)
