Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
- [a]
$ a+e+f+g=285,b+d+f+g=195 $
$ c+d+e+f=115,e+g=45,f+g=70,d+g $
$ =50 $
$ a+b+c+d+e+f+g=500-50=450 $
We obtain,, $ a+f=240,b+d=125,c+e=65 $
$ a+e=215,b+f=145;b+c+d=165 $
$ a+c+e=225;a+b+f=335 $
Solving we get $ b=95,c=40,a=190,d=30,e=25,f=50 $ And $ g=20 $
Desired quantity $ =a+b+c=325 $
