An amount of money was distributed among A, B and C in the ratio p : q : r. Consider the following statements : 1. A gets the maximum share if p is greater than (q+r). 2. C gets the minimum share if r is less than (p+q). Which of the above statements is/are correct?
1 only
2 only
Both 1 and 2
Neither 1 nor 2
Ratio of distribution of money among A, B and C is p : q : r. Considering statement 1: If p > (q + r), then p is definitely the largest number. So, A must have got the maximum share. Hence, statement 1 is correct. Considering statement 2: If r < (p + q), then r may or may not be the smallest number. For example, 5 < (2 + 4). So, C may or may not have got the minimum share. Hence, statement 2 is incorrect.
