25.	A sum of Rs. 1360 has been divided among A, B and C such that A gets   of what B gets and B gets   of what C gets. B's share is:
	A. Rs. 120 B. Rs. 160 C. Rs. 240 D. Rs. 300

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let C's share = Rs. x

Then, B's share = Rs.	x	,   A's share = Rs.		2	x	x		= Rs.	x
	4			3		4			6

	x	+	x	+ x = 1360
	6		4

	17x	= 1360
	12

x =	1360 x 12	= Rs. 960
	17

Hence, B's share = Rs.		960		= Rs. 240.
