26. A sum of Rs. 1360 has been divided among A, B and C such that A gets 2/3 of what B gets and B gets 1/4 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/4; A's share = Rs.2/3 * x/4= Rs. x/6
Therefore x/6 + x/4 + x = 1360
17x/12 = 1360
x= 1360*12/17= Rs.960
Hence, B's share= Rs.960/4= Rs.240
