Four milkmen rented a pasture. A grazed 24 cows for 3 months; B 10 for 5 months; C 35 cows for 4 months and D 21 cows for 3 months. If A's share of rent is Rs. 1440, find the total rent of the field. Choose one.
A) 6500	B) 3550	C) 4250	D) 2250	E) 3250
Ratio of shares of A, B, C, D = (24 x 3) : (10 x 5) : (35 x 4) : (21 x 3) = 72 : 50 : 140 : 63.   Let total rent be Rs. x. Then, A’s share = Rs. (72x)/325   (72x)/325=1440 = x=(1440 x 325)/72 = 6500   Hence, total rent of the field is Rs. 6500.   6500nswer is 6500.
