Q:

There is certain numbers of toys in the box. They are divided into such a way that the person who gets 1/4 of the whole gets thrice of what the others get on an average. Find the number of people amongst whom the toys are distributed?

A) 8 B) 10
C) 12 D) 9
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 10

If the person who gets 1/4 of the whole gets thrice of what the others get on an average, each one will get =1/3×1/4=112 of the whole.
Therefore, if there are k persons other than the person who gets one-fourth, then 1/4 + k/12 = 1
⇒ k=9

Hence, total number of people = 10.
