a sum of money is to be distributed among a , b , c , d in the proportion of 5 : 2 : 4 : 3 . if c gets $ 500 more than d , what is c ' s share ?
"let the shares of a , b , c and d be 5 x , 2 x , 4 x and 3 x respectively . then , 4 x - 3 x = 500 x = $ 500 c ' s share = 4 x = 4 * $ 500 = $ 2000 the answer is d ."
multiply(multiply(subtract(4, 3), 500), 3)
