7. A sum of Money is to be distributed among A, B, C, D in the proportion of 5:2: 4:3. If C gets Rs. 1000 more than D, what is B’s share?
A.) Rs. 500
B.) Rs. 1500
C.) Rs. 2000
D.) None of these
Answer: Option C

Let the shares of A, B, C and D be Rs. 5x, Rs. 2x, Rs. 4x and Rs. 3x respectively.
Then, 4x – 3x = 1000 --> x = 1000.
B’s share = Rs. 2x = Rs. (2 x 1000) = Rs. 2000.
