1. If Rs. 320 is divided between two people in the ratio 3 : 5, what is the smaller share?

  • A. Rs. 100
  • B. Rs. 120
  • C. Rs. 160
  • D. Rs. 200

Explanation: The ratio has 3 + 5 = 8 parts, so one part is 320 ÷ 8 = 40. The smaller share is 3 × 40 = Rs. 120 and the larger is 5 × 40 = Rs. 200, which correctly sum to Rs. 320.

Correct answer: Rs. 120
