A sum of Rs. 53 is divided among A, B, C in such a way that A gets Rs. 7 more than what B gets and B gets Rs. 8 more than what C gets. The ratio of their shares is : A. 25:18:10 B. 24:10:15 C. 30:25:10 D. 25:12:18 Answer Workspace Report Discuss Answer with explanation Answer: Option A Explanation Suppose C gets Rs. x.
