Correct Answer - Option 1 : 2000
Given:
A sum of money is to be distributed among A, B, C, D in the proportion of 7: 2: 8: 3.
C gets Rs. 5000 more than D
Calculation
Let the shares of A, B, C, and D be Rs. 7x, Rs. 2x, Rs. 8x and Rs. 3x
Then, 8x - 3x = 5000
x = 1000
Therefore, B's share = Rs. 2x = Rs. (2 x 1000) = Rs. 2000
∴ B's share is Rs. 2000
