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. 2160, find the total rent of the field. Select.
A) 3750 B) 3550 C) 4250 D) 9750 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=2160 = x=(2160 x 325)/72 = 9750   Hence, total rent of the field is Rs. 9750.   Answer is 9750.
