N140,000 is shared between Abu, Kayode and Uche. Abu has twice as much as Kayode and Kayode has twice as much as Uche. What is Kayode’sshare?
-
A.
N80,000 -
B.
N40,000 -
C.
N2,000 -
D.
10,000
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation
Let Abu’s share = 2x;
Kayode’s = x
Uche’s share = (frac{x}{2})
Total: 2x + x + (frac{x}{2}) = N140,000
(frac{7x}{2}) = N140,000
x = (frac{280,000}{7}) = N40,000
Kayode’s share = N40,000
