Solution(By Apex Team)
$\begin{array}{l}
\text { Let } C=x \\
\text { Then, } \mathrm{B}=x+50000 \text { and } \\
\mathrm{A}=x+50000+40000 \\
\quad=x+90000 \\
\text { So, } x+x+50000+x+90000=500000 \\
\Rightarrow 3 x=360000 \\
\Rightarrow x=120000 \\
\text { A:B:C }=210000: 170000: 120000 \\
\quad=21: 17: 12 \\
\therefore \text { A’s share } \\
=R s \cdot\left(350000 \times \frac{21}{50}\right) \\
=\text { Rs. } 1,47,000
\end{array}$
