In a ratio of 5 : 2 : 4 : 3 for A, B, C, and D respectively, if C gets 2000 more than B, how much does B get?

  • (a) 1500
  • (b) 2500
  • (c) 3000
  • (d) 2000
  • Solution: If A, B, C, and D are expressed as multiples of x, then A = 5x, B = 2x, C = 4x, and D = 3x. The condition that C is 2000 more than B translates into the equation 4x - 2x = 2000.
  • The equation simplifies to 2x = 2000. From this equation, x = 1000. Therefore, B = 2x.
  • Substituting the value of x into the equation gives B = 2 × 1000 = 2000.
