Answer:
Rs. 14000
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratio of money distributed among four persons P, Q, R, and S is 2 : 5 : 4 :3.
Share of money with P = 2x
Share of money with Q = 5x
Share of money with R = 4x
Share of money with S = 3x
Total money = 2x + 5x + 4x + 3x
= 14x
Q gets Rs. 2000 more than S.
⇒ Share of money with Q = Share of money with S + 2000
5x = 3x + 2000
Subtract '2x' from both sides,
5x - 3x = 2000
2x = 2000
Divide both sides by 2,
x = 2000 ÷ 2
x = 1000
Total money = 14x
= 14*1000
= Rs. 14000
